Love sings

Love sings

It howls

Like an animal

Caught in a trap

Helpless

Waiting for release

Eaten from the inside out

Burning up

A heart on fire

A bird in flight

A whispered promise

In the night

A sleepless wait

The deepest ache

Euphoric bliss

And tender kiss

That lingers,

The movement

Of her fingers,

The tremor

when you touch

The fear

Of losing

All you know

The heartbreak

When you

Have to go

It calls your name

Nothing else

Will ever sound the same

A cry in the night

A gentle sob

A scream

Against the dying light

It gives life

Consumes your soul

Takes it out

And fills the hole

With sorrow

When there is

Nothing but tomorrow

That always seems

To take too long

Lost in a thought

Caught up

In the words

And the sadness

Of a song

That love brings.
