My Jasmine
Enveloped by your fragrant mist
I feel as though I’ve just been kissed
My senses now, I must enlist
Tempting this hypnotic tryst
I’ve not the power to resist
Innocent in sultry tones
Your ivory beauty now condones
Seduction of a heart it owns
Held captive, one of many drones
To drink of your exotic sigh
The tea of an erotic high
Arouses such, I must comply
Nearing now a manic state
I must stop, now it’s too late
I am weakened by your touch
Now I feel that I exist
Not just lifeless skin and bones
I don’t have to wonder why
Always knew it was my fate
My Jasmine said as much
