Prison

You cut to the core And into my essence The shell is no more When filled by your presence   Submerged in the waters Of consummate bliss My love cannot falter When sealed by your kiss   The world shines anew With your tender embrace All desire is subdued All pain is erased   Thus, here in the void Outside your existence My heart remains embroid With bittersweet reminiscence   Emblazoned with passion I long for release What now is my prison Had once set me free February 10, 2009
