Love Sweet Melody

Patricia, my love,
such a privilege exists in knowing you,
and even more so to love you.

We exist together in such sweet harmony— you and I,
growing closer together with the passing of days,
and through the nights our hearts are melding as one.

Then come each morning— I am born again,
sleeping naked in your arms.

This love of yours has swallowed me whole
and cleansed me through and through.

So I ascend from the depths of this pain ridden heart,
breaking free of its willful grasp.

It is your world that surrounds me now,
and mine lies within you.

It is one wherein I may smile again,
finding joy in tomorrows offerings.

So now I stand here before you,
and I see a fountain of life in your sweet hazel eyes.

Reflecting inward—
I am standing there beneath it,

Swooned in by its symmetry—
I await you.

So consume me— if you will, as I wade into your sacred pool,
and let the splendor of your passion seep in around me,
as the earth slips out from beneath my feet.

Let the tide of love rush up to greet my heels,
so that I may rise again to hold you firmly in my arms,
loving you so tenderly— as I do.

Let us dance— as the music moves around us,
then set me free to swim the vastness of your heart,
as I build my life around you— and within you as well.

Let us move as one,
for we are one.

Let us set a course for tomorrow,
and arrive there we shall.

Let us choose a path that we shall walk together.
and our footsteps alone will take us there.

So I say to you, my sweet Patricia—
Come with me— Oh- come with me—

Come with me— and let us walk beneath the stars,
let us walk the shores of this sweet ocean melody.

Let us feel the strength of what this love can be,
and let us share the music that we shall find there within.

Open your eyes— and see me as I am—
For I am— Who I am— What I am—

Find trust and truth in all that I say—
For I confide in thee—
My greatest passions, desires and intimacies.

I keep no secrets and share all that I am—
For I am— Who I am— What I am—

I believe in you— like no other before you,
and I am humbled by all that you are,

There is much that I see within you,
and I do with admiration and respect.

But there is something more to you, my love,
something more than words can define.

You have a way about you that warms my soul,
like reading poetry in your eyes.

It’s the way you take in the world around you,
with eyes glistening, hopeful and amazed,
and I see it there alluringly collective in your gaze,

It’s as if you hold all the beauty of the world within you—
So I eagerly delve into the passion that awaits me,
the passion inside you,
and for you— inside me.

Let us move forward with an open mind—
and with the will to love again—
to love another—

Loving each other—
like no other.

For life is an open text,
not always with the words of our choosing

So open your heart,
and step off the page,
a new chapter has begun.

Empty pages—
Pen in hand—
Let’s complete this story together.

Our story,
I love you sweetheart.
