Kiss me only with sweet poetry
Dance with me only with your words
I live in a room there
Hidden between the lines
Carry the touch of your heart on wings
Given flight in lyrical symmetry
So your music can play me safely
Where my heart answers back
A taboo – never to be
Examined like lost stones -
Mettle never to be tried
By time or hardship.
The gift, a safe harbor
To immure stubborn affections
For what can never be.

Kiss me only with sweet poetry
Dance with me only with your words
I live in a room there
Hidden between the lines
Carry the touch of your heart on wings
Given flight in lyrical symmetry
So your music can play me safely
Where my heart answers back
A taboo – never to be
Examined like lost stones -
Mettle never to be tried
By time or hardship.
The gift, a safe harbor
To immure stubborn affections
For what can never be.
