a tentative haven

you've offered

though your heart lays weary

upon a distant shore

don't you know..........(sighs)

you remain ever my prominent raven

come wave to persistent wing's wave

why, even now from your injured moor

I still hold the sweetness and passion

you crave

that of which you claim to adore

so much so that I still feel your consistent

adoration for me and so much more

hovering at a fluttering stay

I must stand firm

I tell my heart

for in my faith of you

hope sings sweet

to shore up my quivering core

you will not leave me thus

empty and without words for long

I know the very honor your words to me wore

so much want, desire and ache

they do not so easily turn to ash

for if the flames are even only so very slightly

fed a little oxygen and some tender kindling

the fire can return in its full and glorious blaze

and if nothing ever stood truer

we both know

no matter what the grim circumstance between us

you are my fire for certain

as I am yours for all my days............
