dare to let me love you
as the swallow loves the spring
as winter mourns the smell
of burning leaves

dare to let me hold you
as blue defies the clouds
as storms to brace
against the night
we knew

dare to let me touch you
til the final flame is gone –
as secrets spilled
to shadows
round our bed

dare to let me understand
the magic that you make –
stories yet unwritten
to your dreams

dare to let me know you
as I knew you times before
and roads we took –
awaiting
to arrive

dare to let me kiss you
to taste your words as mine
and live on breath –
was just before
my name
