Passion's Power

It scorches; it sears
It burns in the veins
It maddens; it deranges
It gives exquisite pains
 
It entices; it provokes
It lures to its lair
It boils; it combusts
It lays the heart bare
 
It consumes; it exhumes
The forbidden dreams
It demands; it commands
That you follow its schemes
 
It explodes; it erupts
In a firework display
It throbs; and pulsates
You can’t get away
 
It moans; it screams
It gives you no choice
It pants; it groans
It gives love a voice
 
It’s passion; it’s desire
It’s pure ecstasy!
It’s wonder; it’s magic
Come live it with me.
