Love Poem: My Highest Peak

My Highest Peak

In my arms  In my world
She is my highest peak
On her time  In her hold
My heart beats to her tick

When I’m lost  When I’m cold
Her warm breath I shall seek
In her love  Grey and old
Upstream into her creek

In her love  Truth be told  
My lightning bolt when I'm weak
In her smile  I am sold
My remedy when I'm a wreck

When I’m proud  When she speaks  
I shall listen as I should
Beautiful and Bold  May we live   
To the mating of our souls

In the night  On her moon
Float beyond Mars
To our dreams  In our cocoon
To where we finally become stars
  
In due time  In her womb
May she rebirth me a father
In our home  Underneath our tomb
May our hair shed together

On her time  In her hold
My heart beats to her tick
In my arms  In my world
She is my highest peak
