Basking in your love

Basking in your love


Nestled down
Just you and me
In a moment of time
Candlelit dreams
Coming true
We kiss, we cuddle
As the fireplace flames
Crackle in syncopated rhythm
But this fire is no match
For the fire burning
Inside my heart for you
For you and no other
Now or ever before
I have so much love to give
So much love for you
I am happy, truly happy
For the first time
In all my years
I am finally where
I want to be
I am home and at peace
In my heart
And in my soul
As we, in love's passion
Intertwine on this night
This cold and darkest of nights
We, you and I
Are two halves
Of the same whole
Uniting equal shares
Of the same soul
In little time
The fireplace flames
Burn readily out
And turn to
Cold gray ashes
But for you and I
The fire still burns
And will only expel
When we no longer
Step and breathe
On this earthly mortal plain
