THY BODY

Thy body tho' beautiful to mine eyes
Holds there a secret which my heart belies
Love can't be held within mere walls of flesh
'Tis of the Spirit which transcends this mesh
Thus fears unfounded have past seen their day
How can an essence be taken away
When it dwells neither in time nor in space
But lives within itself at its own pace
Stretching forever on into my soul
There ever changing and yet always whole
And forming an integral part of my being
Of which nothing could possibly severe
'Tis of myself so I fear not its fleeing
Already I have loved you forever
