Plunge Me Deep in Love

Lost as a candle lit at noon,

lost as a snowflake in the sea,

You love me, and I find you still,

a spirit bright and free.

Yet I am I, who long to be

lost as light is lost in light,

Oh plunge me deep in love—put out

my senses, leave me blind to sight.

Swept by the tempest of your love,

a taper in a rushing wind,

You are my right,

and have become my night.

Your body takes on

the dimensions of sleep,

The shape of dreams that cradle

every secret that I keep.

Home is nowhere, therefore you,

a song both old and new,

In your embrace, I find my place,

and love without taboo.
