The Love of You - a Collaboration With Deb Wilson

As I compose these rhymes, I've been contemplating on what to do.
Because there are times I've been debating if this is real what I feel for you!
I'm utterly amazed by the amount of desire I feel.
And I'm kinda dazed, questioning if this internal fire is real.
But whether wrong or right, one thing rings true.
I have a ravenous appetite for the love of you!

I compare you to past loves - you are so much more.
To love and be loved, I'd never do again, I swore.
But gazing into your beautiful eyes I know it's time.
This love of you's so fierce I couldn't stop on a dime!
But whether wrong or right, one thing is true.
I have an incredible hunger for the love of you!


Note: I wrote first stanza and Deb wrote the second.
