Sure enough Sarge, we can do that. I am going into my files for a goodie.

Bridge of Relief

You are my bridge
spanning onto new plateaus
over patches of rough water
open chasms of peril and fear
with you near me...
I have no dread of tomorrow
or of cold black nights
or of holding ceremonies
from dusk til dawn
you are my dusk, my dawn
my past and my future...
you are the ceremony...

Then, I shall lead...

We dance once more!

Just like always, like before,
the room looks upon us as we spin
the lights twinkle on the skirt, on your shin,
music swells and carries us off
to places where we love.

At arm's length, then close to me
you twine about me and embrace me,
holding close your fluttering eyes,
trembling in my arms.

Or, is that me, quaking
with the hope of making
a dream live in your eyes tonight?
Your shining face, your tight embrace,
crimson life behind your lips,
pressing closer, scented romance,
your mouth fastens on me...

and the world just stopped.

She's kissing me.
Alive and melting to my touch.
my breath has stopped, I'm frozen
by this kiss

...and then, it's over,
and the world turns once more
around the dance floor.
