In my garden

In my garden of Eden, I am consumed

Intriguing scents of lofty lavender flood my mind,

Old spiced roses intermingle with youthful ones; soft perfumes

Make way for new meanings, asking me to reason and to find



That one love that will be so kind.

A man of staggering strength and my only desire

He is loving, perceptive and ignites my tumultuous fire

Poetic and worldly like no other

He brings me to ecstasy as my only lover



Someday, in dreams I perchance to meet

This man whose heart is free of deceit

He has given me so much, no words can say

A tenderness and love I hold close to me on this day



Here I ponder, love and cry

In my garden of Eden, looking towards the sky

The stars are shining, the moon is aglow

And does this man even exist, does he even know?

Of this, my rendering bliss

The dreams I have of his eternal kiss.
