Unforgettable.
We pair of home-comers
built from painful baggage a water-tight dream,
we painted an idyll of walled delight.
A bright corner where care could cover old scars.
Oh that happy hand-in-glove fit
of regenerative pleasure which we dared admit
into the picture of autumnal love.
Such easy laughter sparked need
to spend more new-found treasure in bounteous
tending our moments of bloom.
Fresh as youth the dreams we wove from aridity.
Your tenderness stoked heat
in forgotten feelings, blazed pathways to places
I had never been and seared
heaven into my wasteland of solo existence.
So gentle our mounting to like
desire for unleashing freedom, exciting steps
waited with chance to climb untasted sheer heights
where I thrived in sweet air of acceptability.
You re-sculpted sallow composure,
restructured palid future, accessed the girl inside
and unfastened this latched-up former
dry conformist, your tactile spirit let loose
love\'s abandon and I did not refuse.
Beautiful man your love smeared
warmth on every cold fold of denial\'s insistence,
toned any slack in compatible essence
and de-misted my short-sighted myopic signals.
Oil of duo-romance honed compatibility,
our joinings were something greater than flesh,
yield reached unbelievable bliss.
and that better otherness I shall ever remember.
No ocean of parting can break deep devotion\'s
integrity and I know for certain
our souls remain tied and we shall meet again.
Oh unforgettable man you stole
into destiny, led me to love, captured my soul,
and now you hold it forever.
