The sunset hour darkens my door,
A shadow moves across the floor;
There he stands in luminous air.....
The answer to my daily prayer
My trembling hands follow his form,
The cold night air turns, oh, so warm;
I taste his kiss scorching the air,
My fingers stroke his tangled hair
Just particles and flecks of dust!
I despair and turn in disgust;
He pulls me back and holds me tight,
My spirit love, my errant knight
Sensual feelings are unending,
O, what torment this pretending!
When from reality I flee,
It's then his spirit comes to me
How I love him..... how I need him!
Lord, don't let this beacon grow dim!
But his love is not mine to own,
And soon the night finds me alone
Prayers can't change the rules of this game:
Here comes Fate to blow out the flame;
A foolish dream, a wish in vain.....
Companion from another plane
Face of moonlight, kiss born of dreams,
Love's longing taken to extremes;
Existing in some realm above,
He's all I have..... my spirit love
How i love him! ! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
