I Promise You My Innocence

Author: Nicholas Gordon

I promise you my innocence
When fire fills the sky,
When the sun erupts in ecstasy
And fading furies die. 
I want to fill your life with love,
So full you want to cry,
And make myself your land and sea,
Your mirror and your eye. 

I lay my happiness upon
The pillow of your sigh;
Your joy, your love, your need of me
Is where my angels lie.
