Shined hot between yours and mine:

Hips overlapping closer,
Bodies quivered all over....

the moon shined through haze
                 in this cold winter morning

On top of stairs
I was dazzled
By the intense light
She radiated.

Which gleamed
In hers figure....

Hostage to fortune,
prisoner of time

Trophies a burden,
 polished and shined

Greed but a jailer,
freedom denied

who troth eternal love, yet o'er night die the flames.
A year not even shined upon our ever vows
uncouth became to you, strange and foreign am now....
