I win your heart, your kickass ticking time bomb
I played it fair, no clubs, but love in spades
Feel I'll explode, but outwardly I seem calm
You, diamond queen, with me, jack of all trades

I sail your waves, the surf of your high rash crest
Your cyclone penetrates my frail defense
You siren you, I rest my case on your chest
I, one-eyed, Cyclops, dismiss all pretense

My single eye strokes your hunger in wild bliss
My mouth just stammers syllables of lust
You, answer me, kiss me, move me, kinesis
Gesticulate, manipulate my trust

     The fickle feeble mind seeking oblivion
     In milliseconds it will come undone

I think you are feeling quite well - you have written one of my favorite forms 'Sonnet' subtly capturing in your lines Lust, Love and a generous sprinkling of romance - well done High 7

Hehe, you might be right, I don't feel bad this morning, I feel quite good actually, and one must use that feeling for some lust, love and romance, yes? Thank you for the 7.

Thank you so much Darren, I was lost for a moment trying to write my next lyric and your wonderful poem just gave me the elusive line I needed "a moment, just a moment, let it engulf you and possess your heart, as two chambers resonate as one'. See, you are a well of inspiration:) Amitiés

Haha, your line is so much more poetic than my: "I win your heart, your kickass ticking time bomb" :D But thank you for the compliment!
