Surrender

It's easy to say grandiose words
But It takes guts to live up to the grandiloquence

This is what love begins with

This is what love is preserved with

Giving all you have to beloved willingly

Because to do so it becomes necessary

Unquestionable trust, unquenchable thirst

Doing all that you didn't or couldn't

Tracing the curves, splitting the seams

Being the flesh of the beloved's dreams

Digging the fabric beneath the skin

Casting the love-shadows on the soul therein

Diving into the deepest, stealing the breath

Putting out the fears of leading into the little death

Jumping into the fire blissfully and passionately

There go torrid romance and consummation of glory
