Desire

The summer sun is bright, yet I

Have no warmth from its omnipotent blaze.

In the edgy chill, I fear I will die

Without your arms to save me from this phase.

You do nothing to catch me whilst I fall

But it was you that pushed me from this cliff.

The desolate ground screams its horrid call,

Yet I do not hear past the wind's loud hiss.

If I could have you, I would give my life.

I would slumber forever for one kiss.

Alas, my longings only lead to strife

For it seems that I will never gave bliss.

My soul now burns with the fiercest fire

In hope you will give me my desire.
