Old Year Brings New Passion

Many moons had come and gone
Sorrow in the tides of dawn

Told myself it's not to be
There will be no love for me

No soft whispering in the night
Making love at morning's light

Warm embraces,hotter passion
Solitude was just my fashion

But now as the year does close
I am given to love glows

No more hidden,dark emotion
I am filled with bright devotion

To a new love come to see
All the pent up ecstasy

Someone holds their faith in me
Though locked to him,I am free

In the framework of desire
I am pictured so much higher

Pain of past year now forgot
I've received the love I sought
