Island of Lust

I stand in the Island of lust
Surrounded by angels with dirty devil looks
Surreal yet so beautiful
Temptation in my mind 
Where love remains helpless & blind

Eyes closed I take the pleasure inside
Leaving my values far aside
I don’t dream of love
It reminds me of you
I know this soul of mine
Has to do without you

Shame carved in my heart
I drown my self in guilt
I cry out for your love
In Vain I try to hold your hand 
Happiness seems like a mirage 
In a world made of sand

Oh dearly I searched for your hand
To take me away from this lust inhabited land
