My Passion Is Endless

Beyond most fervent caress
Having held you
Wanting to die in your embrace
Death robbed of that fear

Away so very far
From those haunting battlefields 
Where I once lay
So close to hell

Dreaming now of heaven
In your loving arms
In your eyes
Tears promising me paradise

This lonely heart burns
Just to touch you
Sets my spirit aflame
Uncontrolled is this desire

Asking for your release
Or begging to stay
Standing here on knees
Enraptured
