Love's Journey

Searching for love, he walked the path No traveler's foot had found; Out of the fog emerged the form Of a love, long silent and bound In almost an instant, the spell was cast By every word that he said; I heard his voice, his plea for love, Like a moth to the flame, I was led For just a moment our souls entwined, And our hearts became as one; He sang his song of longing to me, This journey could not be undone Like a rose to the sun, my love opens, He has only to call out my name; My robe of solitude falls to the floor, I surrender to him with no shame Forever in my life, now he must be; An occupant I so desire; He is to me as the bee to the flower, As the heat that belongs to the fire
