For the Last Time
For the last time but as if for the first time,
let blaze a five alarm thrill to burn my woe;
I'll shiver with a tingle like your wind chime,
and forget the lonely nights you left me fallow.
For the last time but as if for the first time,
let passion’s kiss charm the tremble from my lips.
Woo me with your physical rhythm and rhyme,
I'll let the pain, by the pleasure, be eclipsed.
For the last time but as if for the first time,
let pour your hot choc’late voice and spill my name.
as we entwine, your body and mine, sublime,
such a shame your straying flame I could not tame.
For the last time but as if for the first time,
wander with wonder my hazel green eyes..
tell me your love wasn't just satiric mime,
say you still love me; your prettiest of lies.
