You Remain

when you were new to me
our love was a blind and electric thing
it would make my hair stand on it’s end
and leave me buzzing for days
and though the fiery rush of each loving touch
has surely changed
there’s no surface heat that can warm
like the pyre of enduring love
and with the way you fan and feed the flame
nothing burns like you
you remain new to me
when you were new to me
you were a rare and mystical thing
and though you’ve revealed your most humanly traits
your magic remains
there is no celestial power
that can move me like your fleshly frame
you remain new to me
