the velvet ropes of love
Like bending light, Your divinity
leans towards my loving heart -
while I am meltingly undone by Yours.
With every gentle touch I feel
the tender binding tighten;
and as it tightens You too consent
to being tied by the velvet ropes of love.
An excerpt from the full poem,
To be published in The Rose in the Mirror.
