Tell me (yet again) you love me
and feed my hungry heart.
Your words are my ambrosia,
make me feel we’ll never part.

Kiss me with your searing lips.
Yes, brand me with your mark.
I bask in light whenever we touch;
You banished all that’s dark.

The feeling when I enter you
or hold you close and tight
illuminates distant galaxies
and soothes me through the night.

So tell me (yet again) you love me
and calm my primal fears.
If you do this, my dearest one,
I’ll banish all your tears.
