Ephemeral Enchantments

Ephemeral enchantments like ribbons  
adorning a softly sparkling smile, 
beautiful bow ‘Happily ever after’ written; 

Perfect fleeting and often hidden 
dressed up whispers begin to beguile,
ephemeral enchantments like ribbons; 

Every ounce of you begins to quicken
exploring me your hunger tastes hostile, 
beautiful bow ‘Happily ever after’ written; 

Lost in the moment logic overridden 
drawn to such a magnetic profile; 
Ephemeral enchantments like ribbons;

Velvety sweet the lips of the smitten 
disruptive ticking clock comes off vile; 
Beautiful bow ‘Happily ever after’ written; 

Wound so tight and bound to the forbidden  
the glass slipper and gown fit for awhile; 
Ephemeral enchantments like ribbons
beautiful bow ‘Happily ever after’ written.
