My muse is a rose,
her beauty
is alluring
Yet despite her
emotional scars
borne like thorns
our love still blooms.
I adore how
there is always more
Anytime she is near
with just a little bit
more of everything still
and then some more
She is a boundless
store of life and love
Over my life
I have learned
Never to let the mind
get in the way
of the heart
The eyes
cannot hide a smile
which the lips may seal
Soft murmurs
accompany
the night breeze
Sharing an intimate conversation
between our two eager hearts
A secret wish sealed with
the softest kiss
content with dreams
as we each
wait for the other
Together they meet
under the cloak of darkness
A love forbidden by circumstance
His words make her heart ache
She wants to be his midnight sun
Forever
