truly

 
touch me sunshine
in the darkness be my guide
I need your wisdom in the bleak

within your garden grow
I turn in the energies seeking
metaphors sustain me
though I long

I am a flower, melancholy
I have so much to give
open of soul I offer it to you
love in the reflection of my gaze

will you be mine?

take me to the river and baptize me in honor
so I will be your heart's desire
I ache to be parted from you

I long to touch your darkness
disturbing your restlessness
but at the same time exciting it

in truth I am nothing
just a woman tempting the fates
with a request
