Suffocate me, all of me, in love;
defile my senses, leave me deaf and blind.
Drowned in the overwhelming tide of desire,
How I wish I have thee next to me,
my passion will not tire.

To love thee is a neverending rapture;

To be in your embrace, encaptured
by your touch,
wrap me in your shroud of euphoria.
This changeless hunger;
fed and never appeased,
So I, who famish at possession's goal,
Must kiss and kiss, yet receive in return
Empty smiles on empty hearts.

To love thee is an endless longing;

So long as he feeds my hunger with affection,
So long will he stay my being’s addiction.
