Asking what love is, wait a beat
How it feels, in this moment sweet
I love you, and then…
The truth of breath and body, the rush and the wait
A face-tilt to feel the softest embrace, like ocean life on my lungs I ache
Stay here, let your heart hum, over and over
A dream of sun-filled blooms, never fully uncovered
But come each day, to touch my eyes
Each time they close, to wishful sleep they rise
What sweet life, my soul can dream
Earth’s soil so wet, like dew it seems
Tears and feelings, my mind does doubt
But release the budding light, let love sprout
Skip the treacle, the grail, let passion fuel your vessel
A tickle within, let truth in heart bleed red, this moment is special
Now, breathe and push, you rhythmic lover
You gave me the reason, this moment, in Spring’s cover
Lips ask what’s love, wait a beat
Love is here, now and complete
I love you.
