Rekindle

Rekindle
Drinking in hope
like one who has
wandered the desert,
lost for uncounted days

I see the sun rise
in your smile and
exhale joy at
your touch

Feeling as if an
old flame, burning
low for eons, has
rekindled and is
burning brighter
than e'er before

This sense of wonder
leaves me breathless
as we ride the waves
Of unbridled passion

Watching the full
moon rise, basking
in it's glimmer, as
the light radiates,
reflecting in your
eyes, while the
subtle glow
dances across
my body

Nothing I
have yet
to experience,
in this lifetime,
compares to the
feeling of being
held safe in the
arms of you,
my one
