Desire

---

I want you so badly,
I do need you so,
Desire is in me
And rips at my soul,
Though I've been safe,
My carelessness will win,
Churning my body,
Unleashing this sin...
Each time I see you,
I just come undone,
Then when you're far,
So fast I wanna run.

What is this crap called love at first site?

From pool waves at dawning,
I first saw you wet,
Where others did fail,
Your face I can't forget.
My eyes I'll let ravish you,
My lips stay sealed,
To ruin this dream
Would be so unreal...

So here I will write,
Here I will fight,
My feelings that rage
Morning through night,
I'll take to my bed
My lone self, instead,
And dream of you in me
With nothing to dread.
