That in your arms, I be born unto love;
truest of hearts where feelings once again come alive.
You've molded with bared hands,
what once was nothing more than icy coal;
shaping a diamond in life's brilliance.
A garden within my soul, allowed to blossom;
glorified in morning's rays.
Pick gently through the weeds,
and where thorns have sprung,
still you've caught just petals.
An angel of grace and confidence;
your own wings torn at times...
yet I've been lifted, sheltered, and carried
within their true caress.
You've seen through my turbulent storms,
never turning away;
instead dissolving them into cherished rainbows.
Floods of despair washed away,
as once again, I feel.
Gentle winds of night, under luminous glow,
whisper softly.
Each echo carries me to another star,
ridden upon moonbeams and dreams.
Listen to every beat of my heart;
like distant drums,
they sing a tune with purpose,
bringing a message of simplicity and truth.
I won't let the music die.
Perhaps by chance, or destined fate;
that in your arms, I be born unto love.
Author notes
Let love, even if only in dreams for the moment, lift me to humanity once again.
