love;desire

Sun lifts the veil of a teasing Earth

And the skies blush a deep crimson

Your breaths waft like the morning mist

Waylaying us into the maze of passion

The wet sweetness that lingers on your lips

Intoxicates me as we feverishly kiss

Your hair blinds me as I pull you closer

Afraid of being robbed of this transient bliss

Morning rose flush with evanescent joy

Fills my heart with a strange despair

I hold onto you, afraid to let you go

My soul fidgety with a torrid desire

And elsewhere...

Exultant waves, born of nights of love

Of a blanched moon and heaving seas

Keep teasing the lovesick shore

Drawing away, only to come back and kiss
