In the Calm of the Night


My love,

I think about you,
in the calm of the night,
and wonder if you can feel my presence.

I wish myself there tonight,
to lay my cold body beside you,
devouring every bit of your warmth.
So close that we are as one.

Before we met, my soul knew you.
and she whispered your name
to my lips, my body, my heart.

Here I remain, in the still of the night
holding my breath,
in anticipation of your soul.

My road is calling me to you, my love.
As I whisper your name from my lips,
I must wrap myself around you
And never let go.

Forever is my only option,
for I will always need more
one more moment,
one more soft kiss,
one more sweet embrace....

For my lips never kissed,
my body never wanted,
my soul never ached,
before you.

Tonight I dream that you will love me,
all the days of my life.
I dream that you will allow me
to love you as no one has--

With a love that does not fail.
