In this moment
The visceral pleasure of being held tight
Just once
The thoughtful presence of walking in the light
Without shame
The desire to know and be known in the night
Forever
Love doesn't walk away in haughty disregard
We don't own it, or control it, love's demands are hard
What we know or do not know matters not a bit
Love is alluring
For you are in it's grasp, from the start of it
And you cannot turn back
For you know it is what you want
Inside the pulsing heart, it is there, you can feel it pounding
Your soul's furnace is lit
