With Open Eyes

By Abyssia

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Tonight my soul caught fire And with the touch of your hand  Two souls became one, Melting away sorrow And welding together the bodies Of two so opposite, yet so similar. With lust breathing hotly on my neck, And dark passions slowly embracing me, You taught me to love again In such a way that I have never loved before. With open eyes, you saw me for who I am, Who I longed to be, And who I pretended to be... And yet, you loved me regardless.Okay... maybe its not so erotic, but just in case :) Written September 20th, 2001 © on Sep 19 2001 07:09 PM PST   18 • 0 • 16
