Quattor

In celebration of cherishing four months with my boyfriend. <3

Dearest flame,
Dearest ember,
So long ago we met
Do you remember?

This vision I had
And you, a stranger
But in my heart I knew,
With more than my eyes
I could see,
That in your arms,
Your stare,
No, there was no danger

And amongst the shadows,
Your aura did find me
Sought me out,
Seduced me slow;
Begged my name
And I, magnetic to this light
When darkness was all
I had known

For when roses hide in the night
No, they never do gel
But when it is love at first sight
Oh yes, the thorns surely know

For what I saw
I did indeed know
That in your mind
We shared the same souk

And that very first kiss
A bit much, now that I truly
Know you
But the memory
It's wish
No that never did change
For in that instant, it was me
Wanting to know the rest of your name
Me begging that we could play this game
Me knowing my manner would be tamed
My heart no longer put to shame
But brought to fame
No longer maimed

Quattor
Quattor
Yes this
But expecting more

At once I closed my eyes
Opened them a second
To breathe in a kiss, a third
And now so far
So close we've become
Because on this month's first it is only our fourth
And as the months go by,
I realize each day's worth

So along this dream
I wish to stay
Slumbered in it's stream
The night, my days
For within this fancy
I pray do tell
That the man who loves me
Does lock the gates of Hell

So with this kiss
And yes, a silent sigh
I bid thee my heart
For the rest if my time
For in your glow
Yes, in your eyes
It's there I know
Do come to realize
That in this life
I could never say goodbye

So hold me once
Never the last
But just like the first
Promise me forever
Give way to love's curse
For in my being
My presence, my light
I know it is you
You that are my life
