Valentine's Ellip Contest

Low-cut dress
Jeweled excess
You inspire

Wine this eve
Let’s conceive
Our desire

Cordon bleu
Dancing, too
Hearts afire 

My lament
Time’s descent
Night’s expired

For Gigno's Valentine's Ellip Contest

As "Ellip" is not listed among the forms, I just labeled this effort "Verse."
