A Roomful of Whispers Before I felt your love in my heart My soul was in torment Seeking passion amid the devastation of my essence Haunted by unceasing despair I found your Love growing in the twisted wreckage of my faraway dreams A wild flower flourishing in the cracks between ancient unforgiving stones You came into my life and Scattered my despair to the four winds Our souls are now as one Your lips brush against my breast with a nuance of songs Like a roomful of whispers My destiny has become yours Your passions pass through my eyes Like shadows retreating into darkened corners Eternity is ours Do you feel the soothing mind-touch of my delicate tears As they hush your tempest soul? Do you hear my lust weaving a spell-song of longing and desire Enslaving your heart? Now that I have tasted your sweet nectar I can no longer remember the sorrows of my past And I am forever grateful to Love for giving you to me
