Embedded Within My Soul
joseph mcqueen 1953 (Illinois)
The sight of you calms me
The turmoil fades away
The sound of your voice soothes me
Anxiety no longer has a place
Your tender touch warms me
From the cold that absence brings
Your scent with excitement fills me
Anticipation of worldly things
The taste of your kiss overwhelms me
In passion rife with flame
You are the giver of vision
My inspiration to dream
Your love shames me of past complacency
For I have survived in a comfort zone
Now there is an urgency
To accomplish that which I had never known
You are the most important love in my life
My soul's completion until the end
You are my life, my love, my reason
You are my best friend
