under the velvet darkness
of those summer nights
you held me close to you
like a sacred song
rumi once said
that lovers do not finally meet
somewhere along the way
they are inside each other
all along
is that why your name
reawakened a fire in my blood
the moments our lips touched?
your kisses sweet
like the first new moon in the sky
i drank the honey from your lips
and realised how blind i'd been
to ever look for love
when you had lived inside me
in every lifetime.
