Lay Down Your Head(Rondine)

Close your eyes, lay down your head
Still your soul and slow the heart beating, throbbing inside your chest Lounging across my inviting bed
I give you leave to completely spread
Your essence, body, burden, and godhead,
Here, now, when will you be able to rest?
What dreams will come?

____________________________________

Lay down your weary head,
The future shows what's coming is best
Will I be made to follow like the rest?
But if you place your arms in mine, we'll place our heads together,
For in such sleep, what dreams do come

As we lay, hip-to-hip
Breathing each other in
I call upon ancient gods
To worship with me
At the altar of you
Offering wine shared on lips
Kneeling at your feet
Giving, sacrificing
With wild abandon
This soul is yours
Make of it as you will

Beloved/Summons (A Conversation)

I long to see the sunshine.

              You see it every day.

I miss the sea and sand.

In your eyes, their colors lay.

I want to see my beloved,

I miss you just as much!

To walk with her hand and hand.

I miss your very touch!

My beloved, I summon you.

I hear and answer the call.

I call you home to stay.

Why would I wish to be away?

And once you have entered my view,

You are my world, my all!

I promise to be forever with you.

I have no reason to stray.
