(Love) You Are

Love you are a river
Pouring over my naked heart,
The world was a desert so dry
Until I found you, the sky
Was all there was to wear so worn
With weary thorns for braids
To pierce the shores of silent hurtful pain
My Love naked forever in the rain
Where we embrace each other's ghost
Within the space of what was lost,
Dawn, a silken quiver
Of light, primrose suffused with the night
Love, you are a river . . .

The extended metaphor worked perfectly and was very refreshing. The sentiment is hard hitting. Thankyou for sharing this with us.

Regards,
John.
