Heaven On Earth

The beauty of your love is fire,
From head to toe you're my desire!
Your loveliness I admire.

You're like a rare canvas of art.
The wondrous beauty fills my heart.
You've become my counterpart!

One through ten, you're eleven!
Your beauty is like heaven.....

Perfume is the frosting on cake.
Smelling it makes me want to take,
You in my arms and love make.

The portrait on this canvas rare,
Of your beauty makes me to dare,
Think that you could ever care.

For someone in a cell.
Living this way is hell.

Perfumed essence transcends your want.
You're my desire so don't say "don't!"
Please don't be one that will taunt.

I want you in the deepest way.
May never be another day.
Let's come together and play!

One through ten, you, eleven.
Knew you'd be like heaven!
