Light of My Heart

you are the visible light
that shines through my being
decorating
my orbit with the golden petals of wonder
under
the blossoming
sky

you are the light waves
of desire
my hottie
muse of time
sowing the divine seeds of joy
in the secret places
of the heart

now i see nothing
so beautiful
and nothing so colourful
as the naked light
of reason
in the
electromagnetic
spectrum of the moment

and through you, my beloved
i have seen
the light
of lights in my heart
the big bang of desire
in the
moist hour

you are the sublime gift of sight
the ravishing light
of destiny
energising my
hungry soul
reflecting on this ship of dreams
as time begins anew
