This is my 2nd drop on this site let me know what you think...

"Many waters cannot quench love,neither can floods drown it"-Songs of Solomon 8 vs 7

As he's away in the distance of many moons
She beckons....


I once drew from your well

Today, my heart pants by the water brook of your love
Thirsty for a refill

Overtime, I’ve savored the first ration in slow, steady sips
And last night I envision myself tasting the moisture from your sweet lips
This awoke, the dry desert of my heated heart.
I lay in my fantasy hoping it wasn’t just a mirage
I write anticipating a fresh portion as I come to the last drops
For your love I thirst again

See, I know now what I knew then, only you can quench, this here thirst
So, today as I dwell in the sunlight I’m reminded of our illuminated souls embracing
The clouds are like painted ribbons in the sky
Birthed in the bosom of our purse
Mirroring eternity

I thirst

The fullness of your love is enough to fill my cup
I need an outpour love,
And I promise you
I will return to you
Full measure
