It Would Be You



(She ... incited by a phrase)



If I were to share myself ever again

The body and heart would be yours

Along with the spirit, soul and brain

For you've excited and opened pores



Which seethe from blood rushing thru

From my heart, brimming over with heat

As you pulled pain from it, until blues

Washed away down drain below my feet 



So now you know you built a raging fire

It never stopped, just faded into embers

And now work has taken over, dear sire

As passion we shared - can only now be 

                                         remembered ...
