Lifeblood (Samson's Sigh)
Woman, you fan the fading
flames of my
mortality
Nestled here in your warmth,
blissful, soft
serenity
That soothes and hushes
down all hurt
rememberings
Of triumphs lost, of losses
gained, of untold
sufferings
The spell of your charm
seduces, to treachery
leads
As I grope, as I fumble about,
as my lifeblood
bleeds.
