The Wand

You come to me and wave your wand
and conjure an enchanted bond

Your passion begins to work its magic,
upon my life, which once was tragic

My soul's been raised and resurrected;
A fate that I had not expected

The life I'd lived was dark and cold,
still, upon my heart it had a hold

These charms of yours, arouse in me
emotions that must be set free

What feelings now my heart adorn!
Desire to feel, to live, reborn

A fever burns again within,
to hold, to kiss, to touch your skin

This fire that has begun to rage
shall burn these words onto the page:

The magic arts we lovers share,
the spells we weave, the deeds we dare

Are the kindling only passion sparks
into the fire that leaves no marks 

Of enchantments love may die without,
passion's the one; aye, there's no doubt
