Lovers In A Dangerous Time...

What I want to know is...

Can you tell me you love me, not with words but with care?

Can you tell me you love me with a spirit divine and rare?

Can you tell me of your joys?
Can you tell me of your pains?
Can you tell me of your longings?
Can you tell me of your strains?

If any of this you cannot say
Lay your head upon my shoulder and tell me in your own way...
Tell me about your love, that of a royal kind
Tell me about our love, with your body, spirit and mind.

This is for the love of you.

I am...
all that you know and don't know
all that you love and don't love
all that you fear and don't fear
all that you perceive and don't perceive.

I am...
all that is mysterious and not mysterious
all that is divine and not divine
all that is painful and not painful
all that is wise and not wise
all that is possible and not possible.

As I am, I am nothing, anything and everything
from boy to man
from father to son
from lover to friend.

This is, as I am.
