On the longest, darkest night, To pass the aching countdown until dawn, We lit a candle to give us light, A gentle flame to burn until our agonies were gone. With wordless prayer upon my lips, Of moonlight skin on flowing sheets, In all the life that it has given, Never did scarlet taste so sweet. A path of blossoms in the dark, Bloomed from worship of mouth on skin, To beckon Death with gentle fingers, Tell me, how could this be sin? Let me soak up your burning blush against my skin as you lie with me, Let me tell you It is with you, my love, that I am clean; It is like this when we are free.

Solstice
On the longest, darkest night, To pass the aching countdown until dawn, We lit a candle to give us light, A gentle flame to burn until our agonies were gone. With wordless prayer upon my lips, Of moonlight skin on flowing sheets, In all the life that it has given, Never did scarlet taste so sweet. A path of blossoms in the dark, Bloomed from worship of mouth on skin, To beckon Death with gentle fingers, Tell me, how could this be sin? Let me soak up your burning blush against my skin as you lie with me, Let me tell you It is with you, my love, that I am clean; It is like this when we are free.
To my lover
