You have absolutely no idea how much you set my soul on fire

admiring the freckles on your skin
I want to feel everything
when you said you wanted to make love to me
I could feel the heath rushing to my cheeks
and when I felt your fingers trace my skin like poetry
over parts of me that are supposedly broken
all of me that isn’t enough
with every kiss you remind me
the heavier the sin
the sweeter the touch

up the mountains
past the tall, proud evergreens
and the bashful dots of flowers
look down:
the world only appears smaller
than it seems

It was you
who brought the rhapsody
my heart you captured
I don't want to be set free

every note has since
become a part of me
everywhere I go
there's your affinity

I'm fearful of words
often they are said in obscurity
the truest of love if there be
dwells in rapturous melody

that transcends every reason
and ushers in untold beauty
my life rests in your rhapsody
as you are my very ecstasy!

Lift not that
which is beyond your capability
don't take pride to belittle
that which is easy

for the nature of life
is marked by polarity
the wise person sees
everything in totality.
