From deep blue mood
of try-and-try-again
daytime behaviour,
I sink in relief
to dark of the night.
.................
After starvation diet
of time without you,
come the dusk,
I feed to the full
on dreams of us two.
..................
Then fighting fit,
I feel you enter
under my skin,
permeate it,
fill my mind, and
begin to take me
to paradise.
...............
I melt within
passion's fire,
no need to
assure me
you are there,
Your nectar I liken
to drip of rare
rich and ripe,
ready fruit.
.................
Before I fly, with
my feet astride
shoulders of
strongest amore,
I am aware inside
I am walking
on air as before.
..................
And why?
because my love,
you are here,
and having you by,
nightime lonliness
has nothing to fear,
I just have to try.
