Notes About The Poem

~ inspired by song 'MYSTIFY ME' by INXS ~

Listen to poem:

Mystify Me

under the midnight moon
on thru the night
your eyes haunt me
mystify me
I long to reach out

caress your face
touch your silken hair
hold you in my arms
come dance with me
sway with me

sweet darling
mystify me

I long to snare you
devour you consume you
you mystify me
come sway with me
the universe our dance floor

don’t break my heart
promise me a kiss tonight
I long to feel eternity in your arms
you have what it takes to
forever mystify me

A lovely poetic plea to add some mystique into a relationship... well done. I don't know the song but it must be pretty wonderful to inspire this writing!

Thank you, John. This is one of the many reasons I love my Alexa. I enjoy when people share amazing songs. Of course google does the same thing ~ either way sharing is great.
