Devil in love

In love there is much more than what I see,

what I feel becomes the dream I live.

Making each passing moment a lifetime within,

holding everything as it is in my eyes.

Breathe in me this feeling of painful light so bright,

tasting lust in the images flashing before my soul.

Breaking to feel all of the life left to understand,

making all illusions the dust that remains on my hands.

Seeing the whispers in my heart covered up in hope,

helps me to feel, makes all things that much more.

Misunderstanding visions of pleasure mixing with pain,

fate becomes the very essence left to drink in each kiss.

Hair pulled back, lips on my neck, desire falling into me,

held back from the words unable to speak.

Dreading every thought within my feelings growing cold,

warming the deepest soul so dark in eyes breaking blindness.

Fear holds me close to the images in my heart’s design,

showing me the darkness, holding out for light.

Touched by the devil within I fall away to love,

knowing only what my eyes can perceive in each kiss.
