Within

Within

Passion ignited by lust

Burns quickly and brightly

But never lasts for long

To sustain love, you need more

You need intimacy

More than carnal knowledge

To know each other

Inside and out

Without a touch

Without a word

Within

Content

Flying high so close to the sun

The flames are burning higher

Enjoy your time of fun

The passion of a burning fire

Burns brightly and fervid in the mind

As long as pleasure never tires

Providing nourishment for the mind

Can counteract any ennui

Give partners time to unwind

No question about it, patience is key

We’ve heard it time and again

The love we share will keep us free

If this is not your ideal plan, call me friend

I’ll content myself with just that

I’ll rather be wanted then hated again

But once we were a lot of fun

We walked on tightrope wires

But as the years unwind

We’ve learned just to be

Even if our hearts will rend

I’ll content myself with that

Taste

A taste is all you receive

Too much turns sour

Only a brief tease

Never enough

Only a shining moment

Burning so hot

Fire volcanic

Then burned out

Go before it is begun

Oh Candle,

Flame brightly!

But never seem

As though you

Have been lit
