song of a song.

all things radiant

and shimmering:

you are scintillating fireworks

in a night sky; your bright beauty

never fades

all things things meek

and gentle:

you are quiet strength;

a lighthouse of enduring hope amidst

the crashing waves

all things mysterious

and pure:

you are a soul untamed;

a undomesticated heart

that beats with grace

a lily among thorns;

a dazzling diamond

amidst the rough and dull.

in a deep bed of stars,

you shine like the sun.

all things and more:

you are

and I will wait.

never to arouse

what shouldn't be awoken

and I will trust.

for this temporal loneliness

will fade in the garden of our love.
