Cherrywood

when soft lips grazed my parched ones i gasped, i sighed

fondness hadn't touched me in a while

i felt your gaze linger a moment too long on mine

they were burning, burning

white hot with amber flecks and gold

something then reminded me of the smell of cherrywood

and wine

it was art; when you held me close

i could listen to the rhythm of nature in your arms

you held me like the world was i

i dreamt a dream not long before of your eyes

they were crimson deep

hazel set

a storm within

this is why your arms smell like cherrywood and the finest of wine

and chocolate gateau

your lips are bound in silk

and i only crave the more you leave me behind

you took my soul

and i made you mine.


oh baby, you're like cherrywood,

and i'm like wine

we compliment each other

like peonies and pine.
