Desires Sweet Refrain

Let these tears heal your heart

Let them wash away the pain

Rest your head upon this shoulder

That I may breathe the essence of

Desires sweet refrain

 

Enfold me in your warmth

Let my lips lightly brush your skin

All the while let them whisper

Of your beauty without and within

 

Let my velvet touch erase the worry

From your troubled brow

Let me rid you of the past

For we are here and now

 

May your eyes be lost in mine

May my eyes drown in yours

May they find the answers to what

They went searching for

 

Then should the morning find us

Entwined in each others  being

We'll leave the echoes of the night

To desires sweet refrain

What’s not to enjoy? This

What's not to enjoy? This is a lovely tender and gentle expression of love and fulfilled desire. One can only wish the lovers well, and maybe envy them, just a little. Mike "not all matterings of mind equal one violet" ~ e e cummings ~
