Sweet lover, thou hast captured all
The thoughts escaped from lips
And I can close my eyes and trace
The trails of fingertips.
And well beyond the chambers door
Where all your manna lies
I fell in love with mind and heart
Before the passion sighs.
For you are more than sweetest dreams
More still than bragging rights
And you have claimed this sword of mine
And soared to godly heights.
And wouldst I be but just a child
To not delight in thee?
And lose my breath in vision quest
Of treasures that I see.
For I find pleasure with each touch
By sight, by soul, or dream,
And I will feed my heart tonight
Beyond the thrills of scream.
Yes, now my love you know the truth
Desire has filled my soul,
But, I will ne'er be satisfied
With part instead of whole.
As many as the stars of night,
Or sands beyond the sea,
They measure nowhere close to all,
The joys I find in thee.
And I beseech ye now my love,
To hear in pauper's tone,
That I wouldst give the world away,
To be but near your throne.
And feel the magic you bestow
With every breath released
And taste your nectar pure and sweet
In bliss of slumber's feast.
For therein lies the secret
To this life I call my own
I live to die in love with thee
Through words expressed and shown.
