Guilt and Pleasure

Shades of color bind us in the guilty pleasure, Entwined memories of past our deceitful treasure, Reflect within the golden hue in muted red measure; Savour the divine joy without hate or displeasure: Occult beauty touch me with thy sunset desires, Prolong quivers of passion in the dusky fires; In delightful mysticism as the tresses conspire, Playing with the eclipsed night in the insidious attire: Longing in conspicuous moments engulfed by night's tilt; Nature enshrines love beyond the dark altars of guilt.
