Fires of Love

first

when I first saw you
your smile, blending, like the rising sun
bursting out behind
the daily clouds of grey
burning, turning me red,
feeding me with joy
excitement, but lamed,
like a bitten mantis
you, something special,
kindling the fires of love

ambassador

fashionable, Italian draped
gliding graciously
beautiful, making heads turn
speaking x tongues
an ambassador of the world
your head so strong,
but your heart responds
letting you play me
instrument of your desire
talking the language of love

friend

and then your here, in front of me,
laughing, giggling,
with a twinkle in your eye,
talking about anything,
testing words,
like a lawyer in a court
the blemish on your luscious lips,
calling to be kissed
hypnotising, beckoning,
spinning my head,
feeding the desires of love

helper

silently, purposely,
busy around the house,
doing things rightly, cutely,
in your grey striped top,
a different girl
to the lover I know
with your hair back, glasses on,
and then you laugh
flash me, eye of appreciation
sighing the chords of love

lover

musk drugged
lying in arms, softness, closely knit,
running my hands through your dark hair,
down your body
your face changed, mesmerised
eyes glazed
holding back your hair
kissing you
slowly, around your eyes
all over, for eternity
stoking the fires of love

refrain

where are we going
on this journey
love chained thru’ passion
southern and northern souls,
across the earth, so far away
memories past and desire
feeding the fires of love
