The Passing

All I ever wanted
was to pass...
one night
or even just a moment
in your presence
in your light
delirious with delight

So just this night
or even this moment
Let it come to pass...

Let me hold you
Let me have you
All to myself
Please...
Shut us away
where no one can see
where no one can hear
all that I'm longing to reveal

Let me pass this moment
in passion's possession
in this continuous succession
of lovemaking's confession:
I want you

I've always wanted you,
so for one dawnless night
or even just for one eternal moment...
Let my life pass
in the tasting of longed for lips
in the trailing of my hands in your hair
my desire disrobed, bare
This I swear:
to you, nothing else can compare

Now tell me... tell me, do you dare?

My idol
My dream
My first wish
My last need

Listen to me...

Let caution subside,
and hindrances hide
Open... Open your arms wide,
and let me pass 
this night
this moment
here in your arms

Hold me... 
Love me, and I'll gladly pass from this world to the next
breath leaving body
as reality enacts fantasy
I'll pass...
Let me pass
My last moment in your arms
