WHERE THE RIVERS DREAM

Take me where the rivers dream, 
& I will live with you forever, & dance 
in sweet orchards, & the magic will return 
& grow wilder, I need your fire in my veins, 
I need the Cosmos to rage inside my blood, 
lest I lie forever in dreaming blooms, I need the Beauty 
of storm ever imminent, & deeply raging, I need to forget 
all purpose except the heat of long & slow burning flames, 
I need the taste of you, & to feast my hungry eyes upon 
the contours of your skin, I need to see you golden, 
& darkly wreathed in midnight's merciless mystery, 
I need all these contradictory things, all these far flung 
passions, I need the rainbows of your womb, & the erotic 
opiate of your whispers, I need to taste the forbidden 
flavours on your lips, the secret things, the exotic ecstasies 
hidden deep within your flesh & blood & bone, I need 
the unknown & elegant enigma of you, & to feel our reason 
slide into madness in the tempest of your thighs, 
I want to throw off this silver moonlit armour & stalk you 
like a beast with bare & beautiful skin, I want to rise 
like a madman's dawn & burst within your heart 
like a thousand golden Suns...
