Reflections

Reflections run deep
The shadows within
Gentle soul shimmers
But lets no light in

Little girl no more
Dismissed with a sigh
Some tears in the night
But no one sees why

Child, now woman
Grew up just too fast
She let go her heart
Now innocence past

Deeply burns passion
But hidden the soul
Within do not look
So vulnerable

Naive and trusting
So easily torn
Another to love
No longer forlorn

Wish

Just wish upon a star
O so easily done
But the wish in my heart
Is for two to be one

The shadows around me
Beckon, calling "Sweet Child,
Just lay down your head
And come dream for awhile"

As I sit all alone
In the gathering gloom
Light streaks through the window
And you enter my room

Your body soft to touch
Caressing mine freely
So full of desire
You penetrate deeply

O, if this is a dream
Let me never wake up
But the shadows call back
"Sweet Child, time is up"
