Labyrinthine
The tangled intricate emotion of love
washes a thin blood red line on the heart
where a glow waits patiently
on the winding path chosen
that leads to a treasure we seek
Where the sun rises in a fiery blaze
like God striking a match on our horizon
to light the way
through the labyrinthine corridors of the heart
that we find in the eyes of yesterday
measuring whether tomorrow is more bountiful
than the inlaid scars...from a tortured past
filled with perplexing pictures of false dreams
that left our hearts confused
Today we'll travel through the maze of love
seeking meadows
saturated with purple asters and yellow buttercups
where willowy wisps hang in the air
on rainbow colors of silken wings
as the soul listens
to the sound of our pulsating heartbeat
that flows through the labyrinth of day and night
where kisses are yearning
for ardent boundaries of binding arms
that welcome an enchanted heart
where lifting eyelids surrender
to a vision of lovers searching a sunlit sky
that invites a breathless rapture of treasure
found in the twists and turns of love
