Tales of Love

Saturate me with tales of love

Not dinner dates or three-day rules

Forget about void conversation

That relentless depletion as illusion builds

And caged intentions quiver, anticipating defeat

My skin is my skin

But my soul is forever boundless in her scope

Let me love, as the trees welcome the ants

Love, as perfume shared by the lavender

So freely coasts the summer breeze

Love, as the sunrise tickles enthusiasms

Yearnings explode. Purples and pinks decorate the mist

Let me feel the truth in love

The bond that ties our hands to the soil

Muddy fingers planting apple seeds and cherry pits

Let me love with no receipt

And watch demands disappear, pulled under by natures current

I think I’m beginning to understanding

What love is
