Soulmates' Encounter

I'm the desert dry and barren
riddled with disappointment's warren
nomadic men galore
they have trodden upon my lands of lore
but only yours is the footprint I crave for.

I guide your steps via signs into my lonesome place
so as to gaze at your handsome face
signs specifically for you encrypted
who can decode and get the curse lifted.

Harsh sunlight has scorched my sands for ages
yet I remain in the darkness' cages
light irradiated from your eyes
will pierce through the sandstorm and its lies  
bringing me comfort, love and hope
halting my lifelong descent to an agonising slope.

Lean over take me into your arms
dispel with them each suitors' crafty charms
save this flower a withered Lewisia Rediviva
open your mouth and fill mine with your saliva
while breathing your breath into my lifeless lungs
and leave the introductions to our tongues.

Coil around me like a rattlesnake
assert your grip and claim my fate
drench me in your sweat and bet
I'll soak up your every single liquid bead.

At long last moist is my soil
ploughed wide open by your toil
prepped for you to burrow under my screed
so reach my soul and plant your seed
wipe out all the foreign weed.

Mind to dote on it
nourish the seed
so I can return your love
as etiquette requires for my behove
while it grows sprout and shoot
stronger by the day to full blossom
finally I'll pluck off our very fruit
fructified from my bosom.

Let us take a synchronised bite
bite able to satisfy our appetite
through which we forever savour
our fateful union's flavour.

Eternally I will celebrate you my celestial rain
showers changed my landscape's dried-up pain
morphed it into crops of life-giving grain.

In another life may we actually meet
a dejà vu experience so sweet
to be each other's soulmate encounter treat.
