Love Lies

Je suis accro à vos lèvres, ils me rendent fou

Drawn the attraction drowns 
screams pulled to seduction 

   pushed away nights 
   lead to dawn 
   where griped moons 
   wash ashore 

Soft eyes smile  anxiously 
moist lips melt  chilled fright 

   wrap around scents of happy 
   filter off a delicate daisy 
   drops of dew linger on petals 
   of a perfect moment  spent 

Song birds arise off a blanketed blind
chasing winds before they begin to fade 
first rays of light dance with sated hearts 
eyes blink,  fingers entwine,   love lies

This is gorgeous. So full of feeling. "scents of happy filter off a delicate daisy". Great imagery, sights, scents, sounds, feelings. Even the morning songbirds chip in to make this a FAV for me.
