PASSION

You know from the start

It is fuel for the heart.

It affects what you say,

How you act every day.

 

Like some mystical, magic potion

That creates the powerful emotion

Dictating exactly when and what you will do

And confuses everything that you thought you knew.

 

You try to tell yourself “NO! Not this time!”

Too late…reality is gone; there is no reason or rhyme.

Your soul is aching for her loving embrace

As your eyes search frantically just to glance at her face.

 

Moments drag on forever and seem like hours,

You are now under the spell of her special powers.

Your body starts to tremble with anticipation

As your captured feelings search for emancipation.

 

Passion creates a powerful fire

As it fans the flames of desire.

And as your heart burns and crashes,

Passion still smolders within the ashes…
