The night walked straight into my house
Took off her skin under the light
Upon the chair, she placed her blouse
Jumped into bed, right by my side
And there in silence, sparks ignited
We burned in passion’s warm embrace
And in our bodies, cells collided
And in our minds, thoughts were laced
So sudden, almost on a whim
We fell in love, so wild, peeling
Fulfilled with pleasure to the brim
We lied in bed, eyes on the ceiling
And on the desk, the candle flickered
In a seductive, tempting breeze
It slowly melted and disfigured
Upon the plate, its wax would freeze
Its shadows danced, but light was fading
Outside, through creaking of the frost
I barely heard the winds debating
I closed my eyes and all was lost
Woke up alone, half in dismay
I found a note, which read in grieving
“I’m sorry Love, I couldn’t stay
I’ll make it up to you this evening”

What on Earth do you need suggestions for, Master? This poem certainly does not need any poetic improvement! The only thing I would suggest you change is is "lied" to "lay" in the 12th line. An unusual story to tell-I enjoyed it.

But with autumn leaf she perish'd, long time ago..."

"Something sweet, something sort of grandish, sweeps my soul when thou art near..."

Night Lover? (nicely done by the way, the first line really drew me in)
