Naked heat, trembling fear,
Hearing footsteps, coming near,
Sweating buckets, hearts on fire,
How will we, consume desire?

Day slips silently, along its way,
Bodies craving, need no delay,
Can't stop thundering, body heat,
People talking, on the street.

Curtains drawn, dark arrives,
Gathering courage, in this dive,
Hearing footsteps, climb the stairs,
Tonight has purpose, no heavy cares.

Door now opening, a silhouette,
Now place your bets, have no regrets,
Music loudly, playing next door,
No one wants to, to keep the score.

We have reason, to scream the night,
Hearts so tortured, now in flight,
Every breath, we breathe tonight,
This *******, we loose our sight.

On the banging, on the parade,
We roll forward, no masquerade,
This spent evening, this amorous ride,
Nowhere to slither, nowhere to hide.

Rest the beating, hearts beat fast,
How to make this, ******* last,
In this moment, we loose our minds,
Loving this woman, this is divine.
I stopped by today to sing a song,
With a friend I know all day long,
Just to sit and enjoy the melodies,
As we sang such sweet harmony.

Came by cause I had you on my mind,
Wanted to see you and to share a rhyme,
Hold you hand and tell you in the now,
How you lift my spirit so high and how.

Brought my guitar so beautiful and new,
Wanted to show you songs that made me blue,
Needed to share some others that made us shy,
We smiled and laughed and tried not to cry.

Sitting on your front porch is so very  fine,
You look so special, so delightful and divine,
I felt  the breeze blow over both you and me,
The sun is rising high so slowly and easily.

I stopped by today because you make me smile,
Coming over will lift me through the weary miles,
I held you close as we have always tried to do,
There's no other so sweet and it's only you.
I came to share my broken heart,
With those who have to love me so,
My family, friends, and those I meet,
Gathered round to sit and watch me cry.

They sat with faces so bored and stern,
As I stood helpless and nervously by,
The questions came so fast, so frenzied,
I only wanted to curl up and die.

Why did I bring my problems to them?
Why did I want the whole world to know?
This moment in time when my love left,
Should have been a secret burden for me.

No others can look deep into your soul,
To merit out the good and also the bad,
Some things we have should silent be,
With hopes that time would erase the pain.

I came to let the entire universe know,
My love had found someone so new,
So all would come to my door and say,
We wish you well, you broken fool.
Every night I dream of you,
Lusting ever for your love,
Thinking how to get to you,
Hoping that you want me to.

I imagine you come home,
In your lovely gown of blue,
Looking like a goddess now,
How I truly lust for you.

Long your hair in evening flow,
How I want to touch it gently,
Eyes that tell me you want me, too.
Know I truly do lust for you.

Taking slowly off your clothes,
Dropping slowly to the ground,
I take off what I'm wearing now,
In this lust we lust for two.

On the night and deeper there,
I begin to touch your body,
Every move does shake us so,
Lusting longer into the night.

How this joining, our bodies sweat,
Hoping this passion no stopping now,
I am loving the woman I dreamed of,
Always longing the lust be true.
This I take while I go,
No more the savior of the day,
You are the one no longer here,
I am the one now going.

You said go now and be away,
I said ok, I'll leave this time,
But don't come back to say I know,
Just go away and slowly go.

Beginnings have a way of joy,
The middle still the happiness,
But towards the end we fade away,
Go separate ways on lonely streets.

I couldn't patch the hole we made,
No longer could I make you laugh,
So, as it goes you found another,
Who'll give you what I no longer did.

Then as I leave I won't turn round,
Or watch the look of your silent eyes,
There'll be no kiss or hug when going,
This union fell into the void.

I know you'll forget the times we had,
You'll curse my name and all my ways,
Toss out our pictures hanging on the wall,
Will revel in your new found freedom.

But I have life to live and to discover,
I'll find someone, some other lover,
And when I hold her close to me,
I think of how you once loved me.
So, if it took one thousand days,
To find you wandering in endless skies,
I'd search until the clouds flew by,
To catch a glimpse of your sweet face.

Yes, if the world told me I was mad,
For spending my time looking for you,
I'd laugh the madman's frantic laugh,
To fly with geese beyond the world.

I'd dance a simple, gyrating dance,
Like a man who whirls in circles so,
Look deep into their eyes lost in time,
To tell them have you seen you, too?

If wooden boats could fly abroad,
In countries where they sadly stare,
I'd navigate the treacherous waves,
To throw my lifeline of love to you.

But, as we know, you won't be found,
No matter how many days I search in vain,
Yet, can I stop this never-ending voyage,
Long enough to return to my home?

Love lost is lost no matter the crime,
A winged angel would tell you so,
No matter what they repeat, I know,
My search now my beloved song.
No more to paint the world in color,
No more the time for one another,
There lurks a void within us all,
We rise and tumble and we fall.

It's so they say our lives go on,
We see the sunset and the dawn,
There passes friends and family too,
What is humanity to finally do?

To make our mark upon this place,
We have to give into the human race,
To dwell amongst the living and dead,
The serious thoughts now haunt my head.

Success and failure such familiar friends,
Here comes beginnings with the ends,
We laugh and cry and wonder through,
To start each day as something new.

Inventing who we create us to be,
Sometimes so blinded we can not see,
But try we may in much more endeavors,
The world shows us we are not clever.

Yet, don't despair when walls *****,
There's  hope somewhere we won't neglect,
The time and effort put forth this day,
Will bring forth abundance such as it may.

One last thought coming from my brain,
Most of us struggle and are quite insane,
But so it is what it will eventually be,
You are your you and I am my me.
