Over the waves she resides
Shining as a star in the darkness 
Like a polished diamond glistening in the sky
And yet 
Her sparkle that radiates from her eyes 
Makes a choice 
To claim a space she is destined for 
Her space
Deep in my heart 

Her joy and compassion outpoured in her life
Speak volumes of why my desire is full
Of why I would choose to gift my time
Her smile, her giggle, the wrinkle of her nose  
The softness of her skin as my fingers dance 
Melts away our fears 
Builds our desires 
Sends us giddy with excitement 

Can you see why my heart doth beat?
Can you see why my mind doth dream?
For she has planted hope in my heart 
A lightness in my spirit 
And I am no longer alone
