NO OTHER WILL DO~

Can I find another one like you
Under the heaven above the earth
Or any place else in the vast cosmos?

The beauty of your soul afloat in your eyes
The beauty of your body permeating your being
Soft of face, pink of cheeks, chin aquiver
Nape of the neck exposed for a labial caress
Hair so dark, the twilight sky, falling straight down
In strands of soft matt hair, an Iguazu falls.

Your love is an aura around the whole of me
It percolates the molecular interstices of my physique
My mind, my consciousness, my soul.

It is a balm, an unguent, a soft sedation
Sorrow, misery, ennui, monotony and things
Like the water past the arched stone bridge.
Your essence fills my whole being, the nooks
The crevices, the elusive, the unreachable.

What are you, is what is your love
What is me, is what is yours and mine
Combined, synergic, mutual, compatible
Where you end, I begin, but I never end
I ever begin, your love upended, updates me.

I am fresh, I am young, I sing, I frolic
Walk in the rain, jump high into the sky
Run in circles, madder than a hatter
Lie under the stars, music of the spheres.

In short…
To me life begins, and ends with you.
