Yearning For You

This body is a dying breed 
feeds on lust that is given. 
Can you feel me within, 
can you taste what this soul craves. 

Within these arms, 
Beneath, the black canvas of white light. 

Taste me, 
Open....see what lies beneath the serene things 
Find truth that buries itself under this façade 
 
Secrets forgotten, left untold 
 
Hold me beneath your black canvas, 
Let your white light of unfold me
