Sonnet V - While Passions Burn Bright

Post by mdmorash » Fri Aug 06, 2004 5:33 pm

Into the distance I sail on a dream.
Somewhere in the night I can feel your heat,
Flowing unto me, making my heartbeat.
Following your light, I’m ridding your beam.

I’m so long away my longing does scream.
I’m searching for you, and longing to cheat,
To find you before we no longer meat;
I’m lost in myself, and my lustful steam.

But there in the stars I’ve found your soft light.
Like the cool rivers flow quenching my thirst;
You bathe me in warmth, and ease my poor site.

The touch of your skin’s a joy I can’t fight.
And though there’s been more you’re always my first.
So touch me again while passions burn bright.

Humor is the only test of gravity, and gravity of humor; for a subject which will not bear raillery is suspicious, and a jest which will not bear serious examination is false wit.

Aristotle (384 BC - 322 BC)

How poor are they who have not patience! What wound did ever heal but by degrees.
-- William Shakespeare
