Crimson Lanterns

Your eyes ignite the dark, a furnace of molten gold,
      Every glance a covenant, every touch a story bold,

 Fingers explore hidden realms where fire has scorched the skin,
      Night wraps us in its velvet, every pulse a sacred hymn,


 Even shadows lean close, trembling to witness our conflagration,
      The stars bow in awe, eclipsed by the gravity of our fusion.
