Your name
Your name, a tremor on my
lips I weave into a prayer;
an ache in my heart I recognize as love;
a curse I'm recklessly seduced by;
Your name, a breath of bliss;
ignition to the fire burning inside me
who's vigour I know now to fear;
a sigh from my soul, signifying sweet
serenity and chaotic rapture, intertwining
in a heady scent that smells of home;
Your name; an enchantment, a costly spell
I whisper feverishly, incited in candlelight;
a dream I can't quite remember but
know in the recesses of my psyche,
a puzzle I'm obsessed with assembling;
Your name; a mirage, hope in the arid uncertainty;
a drop of rain after a lengthy drought,
an answer to a prayer; Your name,
the sound of dreams coming true
