the sweetness of love
slight bitterness of deceit

and admitted i didnt want to hear it

my skin crackled with electric excitement
anticipating the unknown touch
nerves stretched and begging
satisfaction but a stroke away

wisdom compassion and passion combined
hinted in the color of your eyes
and my heart to your greatness I have pledged
