Rivers of fire

Who I was is nothing to me now as I sit next to you,

has all faded away before our eyes dreaming lust?

Love remembered in times so hard to forget,

knowing only who I see before me in the mirror.

Your eyes reflecting me in some beautiful dream,

kissing lips of poison killing me to live in you.

Soft petals calling images to dream reality blind,

searching for nothing in lost times in your eyes.

I find hopes inside of your hands so tender,

looking into you is like facing the gods.

Your wings spread out to cover my pain,

blending our worlds apart so close together.

Fascinations becoming fixated on our forever,

tasting life in your death so wonderfully smitten.

Leaving lust as you linger in my heart burning ice,

tempt me with your sin, show me into your eyes.

I can’t speak, I can’t move, I am lost in your heart,

calling out in silence this vision painted by your touch.

Moving on top of you, moving to the same song,

forging waves breaking upon the shores of desire.

Endlessly loved in a twisting heaven so cold,

feeling your scent covering me, taking me inside.

Legs pulling me in, tongue feeling my flesh,

so close, so hot, so much pleasure in your waters.

Lips on lips, hips touching hips, love felt in lust,

making me, breaking me, feeling my touch.

I am whole only in complete pieces falling,

into you, into light, into your arms I pray.
