A Burning Desire

I'm looking toward the evening star.

I want a love near and not far.

I am a man with a pure heart.

And no matter what, I will not depart.

I would walk one thousand miles.

Just so I can see her beautiful smile.

I imagine feeling her soft skin.

I look at her, And she has so much beauty from within.

I claim myself to be more than a lover and a friend.

With my feelings, I no longer can pretend.

This love I feel is like a raging fire.

Let us erupt in our love just like a burning desire.
