My Door To Your Heart

My Door To Your Heart

Because the moon is my door to your heart 
I will be bold stars that shelter your world 
to keep you safe with gentle words of love 
that flow as ocean waves which lift your boat 
above abyss of doom so wind of hope 
I breathe may bear you to shore of my heart. 

Prometheus arches his muscular frame 
to shelter Hesione from gusting winds 
which keeps her dry from lash of stinging rain 
as they crouch low against high rocky cliff 
that glitters with each sudden scarlet flash 
as lightning bolts strike adamantine time. 

Slipping deep into narrow jagged crack 
that splits conceptual world of honesty, 
Prometheus leads frail angel of his heart 
into enormous cavern with large pool 
that gleams from light of jewels in its walls 
where they cuddle warm in the wounded gloom. 

Cuddling together at edge of the pool, 
Prometheus and Hesione smile 
at reflection of their faces that gleam 
with eerie calm of transcendental trust 
till drop of water from the cavern roof 
shatters clear vision of their alien souls. 

If I gaze too long at my own strange face, 
my innocent heart might become entranced 
with curious obsession to comprehend 
true nature of that preternatural soul 
which seems to animate my conscious will, 
and forget beauty of your special face. 

Prometheus turns away from their reflection 
and gazes at the face of his young bride, 
then reaches out his trembling hand with awe 
to caress rose-blushed cheek with gentle love, 
so she opens her moist mouth to express 
passionate love of her heart for his soul. 

If, in desire to please your flighty heart 
and keep attention of your loyal love 
long focused straight on essence of my being, 
I echo concepts of your spoken words 
to understand weird mystery of your mind, 
I might forget my own peculiar thoughts. 

Embracing bodies in cavern of jewels, 
the boy and the girl who forget their names 
make love in glimmer of eternal truth 
so they remember how the universe 
still flares forth from first flash of the big bang 
to generate new life from fear of death.

  1. Orpheus finds skeletons of a man and a woman in the mountain cavern forty thousand years after they lived and died, so he displays them in the Zarathian Museum of Natural History.
