Take My Hand

My sweet, 
             as day turns to night,
            as my dreams come alive
         with welcoming thoughts of you
       my body aches with unbearable pangs
    that only you, yes you, can truly satisfy.
                 Come, join me
              in a vision of love,
             in light that welcomes
          us two as the earth welcomes
       the sun of a new day, take my hand.
                   It is with
                  anticipation
                that I put forth
               my   hand as I also
             wish to   place it upon
            your heart, to take yours
          and place it upon my beating
       heart. I wish you to see just how
   my heart beats for the vision that is you.
                  With our eyes
                we will gaze into
               the eternal sunshine
             that even penetrates the
         night as provided on our behalf.
        Our requests or needs for love will
      always go answered and satisfied as we
   are part of the nature itself, containing the 
              light within our hearts,
               the dreams within our
                minds and love upon
                 our fingertips to
                    touch each
                    other with
                     our love.
