Today is like no other in memory
Let us not forget how the sun rays
exploded from the clouds
highlighting the ripe olives in our orchard.
Let us not forget that today when I
embrace you, it’s my wish that we never
again part
Let our love be a testament
a relic forever
Can you hear my heart rumble,
how the power of it makes the earth shake
and people run screaming from its blinding brilliance?
But we are not afraid
I will hold you and you hold me too
Our embrace so warm it burns
your breath hot on my neck and hands
stroking my back like licks of flame
your touch burns and I crave it.
I want more. I want your heat to flow around
my body and mine around yours and when
finally
it cools let our devotion stand like stone
Our monument chained forever to the earth
to prevent us from fleeing to the stars.
