Altared

Altared since his fingers caressed
The clay barreness, love confessed 
I stand before you now trying
To remember when we were one
"I do" wish what I wsas thinking
Was suddenly naked in the sun
Again. Love is a hide and seek
Game until we find what we are
I pray my thoughts does truly leak
Like my pores, for thoughts dare
My will not hide my soul again. I
Want to defy the odds love's history
To live with you for you until I die
At pundits, sage, and sin scoff and defy
I marry you to recover my place
Where your heart beats above my face.
