PEAU DE SOIE
Exotic sound of your voice
Echoes sweetly in my ears
Mystic attraction
Enticing
Romantic
Endearing
Stunning Mademoiselle
Tender within
Resplendent without
Arduous restraints of separation
Melt with delicious thoughts of you
Dull ache of vexed desire
Rhythm of my forlorn heart
Somber cadence
Pensive beat
Lachrymose emotions
Intolerable at times
Conquer futile attempts of resignation
My sapless soul
Parched
Drought laden eidolon
I thirst for your fertile flowing spring
Exotic amulet
Harbor me from fierce lonely gales
Howling through my being
Secure shelter of your embrace
Where I long to be
