Two Candles Burning



She lies here next to me
in a light angelic sleep
our hearts beating in rhythmic measure
resounding, full with new love

The silken chestnut strands of hair
divinely frame her youthful face
her eyes of piercing honesty
and the grace of her lover’s smile

Two candles are left burning
with the flames of understanding
the music reaches out into the night
and passes the torch of joy onto me

The freedom found in these four days
has turned me outside in
learning that the safety that was sought
was the needing of no safety at all

I am only to be one soul
as all one can be next to her
with the incredible lightness of life itself
arousing love as love will do
