if you didn't hold my breath
i could speak all i need to say
i could tell the world about you
and the way you're eternally mine
aphrodite gave life in your lungs
and whispered wonders in your head
telling beauty untold in measures
beyond our own comprehension
if i had room in my soul
i could talk about you to the ends
of our love in its grace
while i still have time
your violence is beautiful
with your heart of fire
my love we'll sleep forever
in each other's souls
