Rapture

Rapture has us intertwined
Before the candle light divine
Sweet nectar of love departs
To feel the pulse within your heart

Never a love, have I yearned
Beside the flames the passion burns

To feel and to know your heart
And to share the love that you impart
For you have moved with earthly feet
And to my lips you're twice as sweet

Rapture is your gentle stare
And the warmth that we both share
Beneath the stars that burn so bright
You are the heaven within my sight

For I adore your alluring scent
Compelling raptures innocence

Beneath the brimstones of desire
You are the one to spark the fire
To feel your skin and breathe you in
To utter words where to begin

For there is rapture in my heart
We as lovers shall never part
For there are beauties before the rose
And may your beauty never close
