I read this and really liked it, then straight after I read 'let me be your degenerate beauty queen,' two poems so different in wording, but they carry the same yearning tone.
All i can say is... WOW! I don't know why you would be "unsure" about this piece. It speaks loud and clear and is very powerful. You are a good writer Miss Rach.
The first two lines`re my fav. ones. There`s so much depth of soul of the nights. Beautiful art! I adore this poem. However, "Lust" gives pleasure to nights in a hope to receive the "melodies" of love off "harmony" through whispering words of warmth.
"Compose a new song,
and play it down my body."
--These lines expressing everything `bout pleasure & needless to say, the love`s hungry of "pleasure", and, the pleasure always gives relief makin` the raged bodies numb at the same time... under the shades of stars for healing "hearts". Very beautiful poem having the taste of lust, no doubt but the feelings for love either and I always respect when the lovers have lust with love caring the emotions of every single beat of heart which`s meant to get shined along the brightness of moon. Excellent work!
yeah, this is alright.
what, specifically, were you unsure about?
"stain my hips with a tune" is a crazy line.
the ending is a little choppy, I suppose. Like, the first two lines of the stanza sort of lead the reader to believe it's going to keep going, but then it ends. I don't know. Ending a poem is much more difficult than starting one.
I like the theme of this poem. Using music like this.

Thank you for your honesty and feedback it's definitely helpful!!
Lust is quick on the up beat. Like instant. Love takes a while, if ever.

Nothing to be unsure about, this was beautiful.
A melody is beautiful on it's own but harmony...
So much in this piece, it talks to the potential, the possibilities... and those loving feelings.
Nice job.
