Damiana

Her kisses taste like cinnamon
Potent as a brew of devil's cherries
Her perfume smells likes dark Magic
But she's a White Witch
Airy, ethereal 
She's a thousand sunsets
There's nightshade in her eyes
Fire on her flesh
Spells on her lips
And those candy hot thistles from her tongue
Send érotique surge through your every vein

And you'll never be the same
And you'll never be the same
(unfading love)

Pink mist, black velvet words
- "I've missed you,..
Hold me, don't let go"
Wrap up inside every syllable
She's hypnotic
Lyrical champagne
Her gaze is ... the stars ... and 13 moons
Her fingertips are open roses
Wandering, conjuring
As Amaranth candles burn 
That blush smoke etches your name

And you'll never be the same
And you'll never be the same
(unfading love)

Sanguine

Come and dance with me, slowly
With haunting, love songs that collide
Our embrace, like hot elixir
Quenching bond, we both feel inside

(I want to drink of your soul)

Everything I am - is yours
You're my world, you make it sublime
I belong to you, entirely
And you'll belong to me ... in time

(I want to drink of your soul)

Who cares about others or how they might perceive us to be
Their vanilla lust often crumbles to dust
They'll never know the taste of a touch for dark lovers, as we 

Let me be the love you've not had
And only the night sky be clad
(by the shimmering depth of your eyes)

Pair with me, sleeping fantasies
Trust with me, tranquil mysteries
(We'll be dream weavers, fevers shall rise)

Come, fill this fierce trembling and thirst that sends me out of control
My love, how I want to stay wrapped in you and drink of your soul
(to infinity)

Lodestar

As the moondust, shimmering
Ethereal, maddening
- houses such unsung longing
(you lead desire)

Cold world, chilled memories
Billow through the brimming trees
But thoughts of you warm and tease
(unhad fire)

Starlight come, fill my body
Guide my wait, craving,... tell me
(oh, bring it true)
Would you quiver with my touch?
Could you ever want me as much
(- as I do you?)
(- as I do you?)

Am I hopeless, am I wrong
- to ache for something so strong?
Is your heart where I belong?
(oh, do I dare?)

I've gone to the edge and leapt
And that's where this course has kept
Please, say you'll love me to death
(take all mine, there)

Starlight come, fill my body
Guide my wait, craving,... tell me
(oh, bring it true)
Would you quiver with my touch?
Could you ever want me as much
(- as I do you?)
(- as I do you?)

Dust and starlight, loving you
Dust and starlight, loving you

Bloodrush

I cannot be -just- your friend
It's gone too far
My heart has invested itself to be your lover
And you have crept into my most private thoughts
However destructive, risqué, crestfallen,...dark
- You didn't turn away
And that's a turn on
I want to know all of you
I want every part of you
Not some lustsick, drama-romance rendezvous
- That swells and bursts into flames 
... then withers to ash
Let me kiss you
Kiss me back
Want me, need me
Let me be ... 'the one'
I love you
You drive me mad
Love me back 
Fury and everlasting fire
Burning
Touch me and feel my bloodrush rouse for you
I'm yours
And you belong to me

Parchment Prose

Romantic rose
Antique crackles
Three words
(I - love - you)
The most perfect, most meaningful words ... ever
And I can smell him
Taste him
Feel him

Black ink quill
And I recall how handsome he is
When he's dressed in black
And how attracted I am (to him)
He wears it well

Elegant font, calligraphically grand
And I recall the curve of his sugar-smile
When he can't get enough of me
And I find that irresistible
I can't get enough of him

Breathy lyrics,... rhythmic, soft moans
I can hear him
His voice moves inside me
And I will recite his sentiment with delicacy
(when next, I'm with him)
Pleasurably procrastinating the brush of my lips
To his chest
His neck
His ear
More and again, I will smell him
Taste him
Feel him
What imagery and senses stir
Oh, those three words
Magnificent
Of parchment prose

Labyrinthine

Sweet spot-electric,... when you enter the room
The world is yours,... I'm all yours to consume
Immerse me completely midst nightshade in bloom
Deadly kiss, absinthe of impassioned perfume

I'm feeling euphoric and sacrificial
For liaison-exquisite, sharp as a thistle

Labyrinthine, dangerously tender
You're contradiction, dominant surrender

Passively aggressive, control my desire
Shall epiphany pang with magnetic fire?
Strike ... unapologetic, epic empire
Ma fee verte,... wake me, make me inquisitive
Love come take me,... la petite mort, vampire

Sweet spot-electric,... when you enter the room
The world is yours,... I'm all yours to consume

I'm feeling euphoric and sacrificial
For liaison-exquisite, sharp as a thistle

(Can't get enough of you, can't get enough of you)
(Deadly kiss, absinthe, control my desire)
(L'amour viens me prendre, la petite mort, vampire)
