Fleeting

The crisp white
of the sheets
upon which you lay me down
cold like ice, yet
warmed by our fire
the sun is in a jealous rage
only the moon looks upon us
blushing at the sight
two lovers stealing time
from the universe

Forbidden love
entangles my heart
blooming in its secret chambers
a flush of red
in the heat of passion
you take me over
my body
my soul
my mind
are yours forever
