Consume me in the burning dance of flesh
And feed from my heart with lavish exuberance
While I surrender to the anticipation of rapture
Consume me with a journey of languid love
And let me cherish in the supple folds of devotion
While I capitulate to the virgin chance of trust
Consume me in the boundaries of limitless faith
And let me live in the fervent hope of you
While I live in the disguise of molten chance
Consume me and I will love without guile
And surrender as my soul mirrors your heart
While we rejoice in the endless echo of joy
