Us
I wake your every morning, my touch fills every night.
You never leave my thinking, you are my only light.
I find what you keep hidden, a woman deep and wild.
You find my darkest prison,
and free this man's lost child.
I am your every sunset
your every hope's sunrise.
You show me words no poet
could rival with your eyes.
I light your body's passion,
your breath caught with desire.
You are my only reason, your kiss my only fire.
Without you there's no living,
for even one day's flame
will stop my heart from dying,
no love could be the same.
