Dear New Love:

Somewhere on the way to my mind
my heart lost what it meant to say
it's like the words I tried to find
were so rapidly drifting away

I tried to extract from my brain
a description of your body's influence
but all my attempts were in vain
I was feeling too much concupiscence

you were completely against my better judgement
as much as I tried to run away
my desire for you was too ardent
and my heart made me stay

my intellect fought vigorously
to encage my hearts jubilations
but my bosom followed blindly
all your promiscuous temptations

if my reason had had its way
I would have asked where is this leading
but my heart's fears made me say
"when are you leaving?"

your charms hushed my reason so fast
pushed into your arms by my desire
my heart only hoping it would last
at least a little longer than a small fire

after only my first date with you
and if I had had to die that day
I would have taken you to Peru
to make your kiss take my last breath away

who are you and what did you do?
how did you bring down the barriers
I cautiously put in front of you
to protect my heart from tears?

my brain stopped trying to understand
and gave in to my hearts insanity
I carefully put my feelings in your hands
closed my eyes and am following you blindly
