Velvet touch; scarlet passion
Shake me down, blissful you
Wrap me in security
A fine embrace will do
Fill my void with your masculinity,
Harmony and adoration
Firmly grasp me with your voice
Let’s speak without anticipation
Selfishness and selflessness;
Opposites will surely attract
I’m unable to douse your flickering flame
I’m full of emotion you can’t extract
Scratch my shell with your snide remarks,
I’ll feed the ego that fiends
I’ll shower you with infatuation;
Satisfy all of your emotional needs
I hold you in my heart with high regards,
though you caused it much ache
You swept me off my feet last Spring
I failed to feel the ground beneath me quake
The escape to a distant plane was easily the best
We held each other’s hand until we laid to rest
No barriers between us, no confidence to wound
I dreamt of you so often; it all ended too soon

I recently have become interested in astrology, so that's where I got the idea for this one.
