Title: Essence of Love Writer: Brent Bower

My most intimate thoughts linger upon The forbidden passion hidden deep within my soul. I lay here awake under the night sky, Among visions of beauty and sleepless dreams Of the one for which my heart desires.

Into the darkness I roam Searching for the one who silently calls over space and time. Though reaching out to grasp the love we yearn to embrace, Never quite close enough to touch.

The days turn to months and the months then to years Hoping that one day we will be united. Then when the cradled hope has finally ceased, Searching forgotten and the feelings denied, I feel your presence caressing the very essence of my being.

Two precious spirits entwined, Soaring through the heavens on the breath of angels wings. A pair of lost souls merging as one, Each completing the other, together true ecstasy they find.

Lovingly dedicated to Marisa to whom my heart belongs.
