"Let this be mine..."
~~<<->>~~
If heaven on earth had a name,
A word of infinite peace,
Hope held sheltered,
In light, in warmth,
Let it be one.
If love had a face or form,
Pure languorous motion,
Flowing through muscles,
Of dextrous steel and stone,
Let it be his.
If desire was a feeling,
Caught in a single glance,
With only a second to glimpse,
Promised nights without end,
Let it be this.
If dreams come true,
And I not asleep
With visions of him
Standing before me now
Stark, beautiful, bold.
Let this be mine.
