Beloved

BELOVED

music and lyrics Kara Johnstad

Warm bath water

Reflecting candle flame

Cool.still

My body still chilled

I relax into the wetness

Surrounding me.

So many feelings

Longing to be expressed.

So many emotions

Longing to be exposed.

I lift myself slowly out

Of the tub and

Climb into bed.

Will I receive you tonight?

Just a glimpse?

Will your arms come and carry me

To a far distant land?
