Love Vs Lust
In love, the other is important, in lust you are important.... Osho
Glossy red lips sensual in lustful desire
radiating within, a fire of wanton pleasure
eyes meet, in subtle spark of excitement
captured too close, find a buried treasure
Love smiles for no reason, intimate thoughts
in sussurus gaze, drift to delirious oblivion
a bunch of white lilies, all throbbing with life
candle flickering forever, in a night obsidian
Glistening skin, pulsating fantasy of touch
adrenaline impatient, Isn't that getting late?
Lust says, I am wild thrill , vulnerable in trust
Love says, "For spring, my flowers can wait".
