…I am released

Come to me my love
hold me close in the river of your soul
I know every part of you
the touch of your lips awaken the flame within
and my heart is clinging like the last leaf in autumn
holding on to the promise of an endless summer
the gravity between us holds us in place
as we spin through time and space
our bodies locked in an endless embrace
I feel that I am drifting
that I might drown in the depths of your eyes
although I know there is nothing to fear
for in your heart’s blue sky I am finally released
and have learned how to fly
