Embracing Eros
To brush candle wicks to a flame
On table for a welcome eye
My heart of love will bow to you
This night with Gods we'll fly
The ocean floods breezes for palms
Siren's call is heard from the sea
Your form fills flickers from candles
The wind blows your hair free
Your smile captured my heart's yearning
Holding it silent, ever soft
We'll feast with waves as our music
Under the stars aloft
Hold hands while strolling the seashore
And search horizons for our dreams
We'll watch our footsteps wash away
And laugh at what it means
We'll kiss on the shores of moonlight
And feel each wanton need from within
Each kiss will leave trailed traces
Sacred, rejoicing in
We'll lay in the sand to Europa
And embrace sighs from Eros flight
Passion will sweep away ebb tides
Lost in waves of the night
