But if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires

Rapturous Soul

Of my love
Of my breath
Of the passion in my chest
Of the earth
Of the sea
Of my farther
And of me
You are of all things but incorporate so much more
You are the love that I fathom and search for
The atoms of my essence sing songs of your grace
The blue jewel of your mind offsets the frustration of our pace
To be lyrically yours I must exhale
The Urban Butterfly carries me so I can not fail
Of my arms but wholly my strength
Delaleuverses run through my mind as I hide behind the slump façade of the trench
Watching the fireworks of shells saunter overhead, all I have is Joy
Iron be soul, may the result of this battle field be Beautifully Imperfect Acuity after I deploy

nique - i am flattered and honored that you wrote a poem which included me. this piece is eloquent and touching. it speaks to so many emotions and the tribute you've paid says so much about your character.

i can't wait for a time when you can post more frequently as you have much to offer us.
