I crawled through the caverns |
to the pit of despair |
and by luck I met a fair maiden |
who asked "How do you fare?" |
I said "I fare well" |
with my jaw slightly agape, |
I was bewitched by dark curls |
and her pretty pale face. |
"Why do you stare?" |
She asked in mock pense |
"Come sit over here," |
she said, and disarmed my defense. |
I joined her by the brook, |
though it was dark and was shadowed |
with a will no longer my own- |
I couldn't leave eve' harrowed. |
They gazed back at mine- |
those soft big black eyes, |
probing my mind |
whilst I was stuck m'smerized. |
"You're so confused," |
she said, furrowing her eyebrows, |
"Just let go of your views" |
she whispered, and put her lips to my mouth. |
It didn't make sense |
It had to be insane |
but my rational attempts |
were exertions in vain. |
The incomprehensible desires |
emerged and o'erwhelmed me |
as my lips locked with hers |
and I pulled her against me. |
"Ohhh..." she sighed |
with unprecidented content |
somehow this was right, |
but still my mind fought against |
what my heart just embraced |
and pulled her still tighter |
our tongues interlaced |
our bodies filled with desire |
And in a passionate frenzy |
we'd cast aside clothes |
made love voraciously |
and fore'er damned our souls. |
The heavens gasped at our actions |
while we gasped within them |
oblivious of stopping |
until we'd completed. |
And then our passions fulfilled |
we lay together abreast |
our hearts and souls thrilled |
and our bodies at rest. |
She placed her hand on mine |
and whispered in my ear, |
"I'll always be thines, |
but it's time to go, dear." |
So I dressed and I left |
both 'wildered and 'plexed |
but I'd been freed of despair |
so I was 'nt depressed. |
