Promise's Progeny:
With a broken promise it begins every time
As desire sweeps in and takes over our minds
Like thunder it shatters all thoughts from before
to a place that’s our own, we then go for more
In oceans of longing I yearn for your touch
until with your lips, my figure you brush
A shiver you cause; I now throb for you
For your voice, for your kiss, the things that you do.
then like velvet your tongue draws its path on my skin
with a taste of my lips is where you begin
in the curve of my neck, you next plant a kiss
wherever I feel you, I 'm showered in bliss
your name is a song that your touch makes me sing
in the midst of elation to your body I cling,
the notes of my breath, your fingers compose
a crescendo I reach; your love's overdose
then on you I play some notes of my own
as I speak in a language that my eyes to you show
until at zenith you then sing the song of my name
and with a kiss we both render desire tame.

Without You:
Remember when you walked away
And everything seemed to have changed?
The smiles less friendly, the skies less blue
Minutes seemed eternal without you,
The night seemed longer, the days less bright
I missed your voice, your touch, your sight.
So I closed my eyes and imagined you here
And I drowned myself in my own sweet tears
Then surrendered myself to thoughts of you
And thoughts of the feelings I wish you knew
As I lay in the dark I imagined you there
Kissing my lips, stroking my hair
Gazing lovingly into my eyes
