Pipe me a lullaby
Elicit slumber's grace
Evoke in me memories... I fear my life will not contain
From fantasising... I know I should refrain
...yet your milky-way eyes, cannot disguise
The need I have that burns inside
Court me, from your crystalline eyes, a glance
Woo me, with your velveteen words of romance
Kiss my skin and make it dance
Pierce my heart with love's true lance
Your truck-bed crammed with quilts and silks, for us to lay upon
A picnic packed with fruits of love, on which to dine... become undone
With promises from the heavens above... clear summer's sequinned skies
Your jacket laced with sweet cologne, bare chested... wanton emerald eyes
Our destination...
lake, nighttime-swimming,
wooden row-boating,
sky-lantern lighting
beach-fires burning
...midnight, star gazing
Oh darling... take me under the stars and fill me with your love
Deep down, I know though fantasy, may never... be enough
