Her Memory Within
I hold her memory within my heart
Of a time when days flowed as a river
When her hunger pierced like a lover's dart
To cause passions to pulsate and quiver
This love was born from our deep dark sadness
And burned the bloom from our lover's wishes
To fill love's cauldron full, with our madness
From love's starved wet mouth of wanton kisses
Deep was the shade from this fleeting fire
That scorched our flesh with white bellowing flame
To find ashes only from our desire
That left us alone with no one to blame
This velvet lover I can not sever
I will hold her memory forever
