Wrapped In Your Words

I hear your tender words of love 
      that echo in the winds, 
   and float on wings of turtle dove
         as loneliness rescinds.

Your words so gently hold my heart
      wrapped in a warm embrace,
   and visions that your thoughts impart
         will make my heartbeat race.

But words are tempting heart’s desire;
      my passions growing strong;
   please share with me, as needs require,
         the love for which I long.

Please hold me like you mean it now,
      for words do not have arms;
   please show the things words don’t allow,
         and share with me your charms.
