My Poisonous Sun
You
Standing before me
A heaven-sent vision
Beguiling and benevolent
Beautiful in the sight of my adoring eyes
In the midst of a crowded room
All I see is you
You become the Sun
I the humble Earth
Revolving around you in wistful orbit
Always at arm’s length
Always only a glance away
Faithful and doggedly devoted
The beating of my heart -
A melody composed especially for you
The pulsing of my intoxicated blood –
A river of passion flowing at your behest
The screaming of every nerve and fiber –
A concert of desire staged in celebration…
Of your limitless Adonis beauty
It is absolutely true you see
When I say that everything I do…
Is done solely for you
My life is lived to praise your birth
You are the breath that gives my lungs cause to breathe
You are the sunlight caressing my skin
In the wake of a long dark winter
You are the sweetest poison my lips have ever tasted…
And if all I could do was to die
Expiring in humble devotion to you
I would die a million times
Just for the honor of knowing
That I had done it in your name
