Burning Songs of Love


O' but how your colorful light adorn
I pity my spirit ravaged and torn
if only a word to find shall I speak
with failing breath knees trembling and weak

If only I should be the chosen one
as a fare virgin flower to the sun
surely moments shall touch the evermore
of lofty heights  entwinning as one  we soar

In vespers I kneel to greet my sweet dream
where each fleshly desire  pulsate and teem
like an endless novel of fleshly rage
our romantic play premier's center stage

But for in a moment  silence consumes
within this trapped mind agony and doom
if only a glance   if to look my way
surely seduction would birth endless days

Writing this novel of endless desire
alone, breathless, I feed the raging fire
