Infinite & Free

Beneath the willow's graceful shade and summer's tender glow
Our love spreads out, wild and unrestrained
An untamed passion that sways and dances
Smitten by this intoxicating madness.
 
A fever that heals and ignites
A fire that fills and yearns
In your eyes, I see more than a woman
The keeper of my silent confessions
The truth my heart discerns. 

In your eyes, I find unspoken truths
The ones I dare not breathe aloud
Your gaze, a mirror of lifetimes shared
I am laid bare.... 
Exquisitely afraid yet fiercely alive
Vulnerable yet truly cared.

Your love dispels the world's harsh deceptions
My soul bare in front of your own
Within our shared moments
Your desire intertwines with my own
A sacred dance only known to us.

I yearn to be the gentle spring rain that kisses your skin
Soft and soothing...
Life may spread out open around us
But my heart remains yours
To you I am eternally bound.

Empty-handed I arrived in this world
Empty-handed I shall depart
Yet one treasure remains guarded in my heart
The memory of us.... 
Preserved in its purest form
A love immortal...
Transcending time's gentle storm.

Under the majestic shadow of the willow tree 
Strangers are not really strangers 
Under the majestic willow's sprawling grace
You and I meet face to face
Our souls naked as the day we were born
Both desiring to be reborn
With every touch...
Each scent...
Each glance...
We feel love's universe.

“I love you,” I murmur...
Tears of joy cascade down your face
While the night enfolds us in its velvet cocoon
A realm where we are free to expand and merge
Together we reach toward Nirvana’s gates
Where in the boundless expanse of our love
We are truly ourselves
Infinite and free
Together you and me.
