Revere

My eyes flickered with the waning candlelight
sensing her presence ever near  
fragrant wafts of her lilac lingered    
surrounding the stillness of the air  
   
she glanced excitingly at my Longfellow  
as my parched lips persued her vibe  
   
"Silently, one by one, in the infinite meadows of heaven, Blossomed the lovely stars, the forget-me-nots of the angels"  
spilled out the recesses of my soul  
where be or not her love to be shall lie  
   
the darkness it bore no worry  
and light not really gone awry  
in this comfort I caressed this angel  
unclothing secrets of a beautiful mind  
   
I whispered my intentions  
holding tight to the fading fear  
it's then and there I kissed her  
the one I so passionately revere
