Sonnet--AMPUTATED URGE

Folder: 
limericks/sonnets

the flames of the night have long been vacant

even in the coldest night we remain stagnant

only the  warmth of the quilt is busy

passing the night devoid of intimacy



age has murdered our desire to satisfy

casting subdued shiver into my spine

morphine is taken to appease the mind

where solace awaits in the empyrean



many times I beg to be hued with lust

so I could taint you with the ink of my sap

to make you cry my name in tauten hush

while I perform that heavenly-bound act



so if I fail to perform my usual act

will your love vanish into the dark?
