We Become As One Poem by Lora Colon

He comes to me in humility,
I love him with passion and pride;
And as we embrace, we become as one,
Where the light and the darkness divide

I walk with him on the burning sand,
We tread through the frozen snow;
I'm on this journey, wherever it leads.....
Whither thou goest, I will go

Flowers of devotion I give to him,
A bouquet offered to no other;
I kiss him until his thirst is quenched,
We are as one, my darling, my lover

And I bend to his longing like a willow,
As the hungry sea swallows the sun;
Like a mantle of black lace, nighttime falls,
Holding each other, we become as one

And he worships at the altar of my heart,
What have I done to deserve Paradise!
We become as one.... he exhales my breath,
His tears of joy fall from my eyes

Then a sigh of relief from a restless morn
As the sea reluctantly gives up the sun;
While he lays in my arms so peacefully,
Me and my darling.... we become as one
