Analysis of A Desire for You...
the tenderness of your touch,
creates a fondness for your heart,
its warmth soothing my soul,
with a passion of excitement...
as I express my adoration for you,
it is your love that I cherish,
with an affection for you,
having no limits,
beyond what the eye can see...
my passionate desire; seeks your heart,
your love, your kindness, your strength,
your weakness, your sorrow, your pain...
such is your love blanketing my soul,
covering the wounds of the past,
your love, I pray will forever last,
as together, we grow complete & whole...
such a love used; to color a rainbow,
to fill a sea, to paint the sky blue,
to fill the moon. to light the stars,
this Love, a desire I have for you....
