You Remain - William Ryan Fritch

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
