One Night

Tangled limbs and lovelorn hearts

Bemused to where it ends or starts

Sweeping waves go higher still

Submitting to each other’s will

Consume – the nature of the beast

Sweet succor then begin to feast

On flesh and soul, on heart and mind

But trying to resist the bind

It flashes – melting skin and stone

What was yours, now not your own

The light begins to dim now grey

You separate, you move away
