Sun of My Life

 

Sun of my life, 

How I rise with thee; 

Close my eyes with thee

 Build my life 

    with your breath. 

Sun of my Eyes, 

  Where loving is warm in summer months, 

     Every season around, 

  As you are abound My Dear, My Darling. 

In everything. 

Everything you had painted black, 

  I painted blank, 

Just so I could love thee. 

Built you a strength, 

  A shield and sword, 

Just to protect thee. 

Forgave you every which 

  Regret that lay in your heart...

For you my cherished Sweet Love...

  Where too beautiful 

     To me, 

Not to love. 

In all your drenched tarry smear...

  I wiped you clean. 

We are clean, Love. 

 Our deeds are done. 

It matters none. 

Heart of my Soul...

  Home of my Sun 

Birthed Boy, just for my Love...

Giver of my Sanctuary...

  Deliverance of my tongue 

Heartbeats pacing 

The length of our hug 

Devotion without my say, My Sweet. 

  What could I ever have done? 

Let me name him after you. 

 Yours, Our Love & Son. 

For your name is the longest consequence 

  of in me, a Bell Rung...

and sounded, sounded, ever since 

 a beckoning, and gut-shaking hum

Your name...

 Was always the downfall 

   of any and every one...

That would come...

  and try to take your place (in me)

But I cherish YOU. 

         And will have 

           no other one. 

 

For long ago, long ago

                  The Bell has rung. 

                  The Bell was rung. 

It's you only, Darling, cherished; adored 

  I knew it when this begun.
