I am the keeper
of our connection;
the priest of a lost temple;
the confidant
of river and bridge;
the writer of many poems.
Fear not,
For I have seen
roses fading
into white ashes
and passions melt into nothingness.
Fear not,
there is freedom.
when deep secrets are shared
and you will be held priceless
upon mine altar of joy
bound not by cords
but by your simple desire
