Honey on Your Lips

Dancing in the fields of fragrant lavender

Close to the garden by the sea

Come to me, my beloved

As you spin, spin, and spin

Dancing in the joy of me

The joy of us.

Making my heart swell and beat so hard with even more love

Your country dress is a bell swirling around your legs

As you twirl and dance

You put honey on your lips

Making them shiny, sweet and kissable

Oh, so kissable.

Knowing I could not resist, would not resist

Wanting you to take me in and possess me with your love

I pulled you down and you fell into my arms so softly

Pulling you so close

It is so right

So right and so wrong.

I should be scared and frightened for you, and for us

But all I can feel is you

Falling into my arms

And I kissed your sweet honey covered lips

Tasting your sweetness, nourishing me and making me stronger

Knowing we are tempting fate

Sneering in the face of society's mores

We should not be here, we should not love

But we won't stop.

This love just can’t be stopped.

You lay beside me and you read me your poems;

And I’ll gently sing you my songs in your ears

And we get lost in the rapture of each other

As we grasp each other in sacred and holy union

Soul, Spirit and Bones and Flesh

Aching to become one

We are becoming One Together

As we have done for centuries

My one true love.

Loving as One

Becoming sacred through mortal sin

There is just so much love

Wrapping and covering us like the softest warm blanket

In comfort and holiness.

We belong together.
