Passion and intuition undefined
Elusive this creature you seek to find
Impossible to tame
Unyielding even to her own fame

She’s an authentic woman
Scars and all nothing defines or defies
Speaking so softly commanding respect
Reserved for so few breathing in her depth

Loving continued beyond nightfall
Into another day knowing
Instinctually all that it will take
Enrobing her sweet beloved
As she gently traces her face

Enfolded into the rapture
Fulfilling their dreams clandestine
Drawn into the limelight
Only to retreat again
Into all they share as night begins
