sweetest darkness, wouldst thou consent to be my muse? for I have had enough of the light, there I have found only heartbreak wouldst thou whisper in mine ear thy songs so sweet? songs that I couldst share with those assembled here? sweetest darkness, wouldst thou consent to be my muse? for thy songs are the most beautiful mine ears have ever heard singing softly in mine dreams on beams of starlight telling me of a love that awaits me in thine arms sweetest darkness, wouldst thou consent to be my muse? please tell me true dark lady, for I await thy word mine heart has ne'er known a touch such as thine my pen will sing of thy love till the dawn comes and e'en then, I shall make the dawn wait, for just a few moments more with thee. . . --------------------------------------------------------------- < !signature--> To the world, you may only be one person.

Enter the shadows of my dreams for only six hours until morning The moon will guide every passion I will attack you without warning I am the Lady of Darkness Do not try to escape I know what I want, I want you Tasting like a succulent grape Consuming your sweet nectar ebony chains hold you bound I can hear your heart beating As you surrender without a sound I am the Lady of Darkness You are in my power of lust Chained in shackles of moonlight sweet darkness we entrust WHOO HOOO HAA... |

If I be but a muse to Sven, thou wouldst delight in the company of mine, dark, but for the halo cast by the moon surrounding, I shall dance thee, to a heart of joy... With a voice like that of a nightingale, whispers, mine, shall invade thee, words that would sweeten the air, tasting of a love shared between the dusting of twilight and the dawning of each new day... Lady Ollyne "O, learn to read what silent love hath writ: To hear with eyes belongs to love's fine wit"...Shakespeare |

Such darkness when surrounding me no other love is right for me.. Hm, well I'm tired, or I could have done better  Beautiful poem, Sven, as always. But especially close to my heart, darkness holds such promise, so much more than light. Take care. Sandra |

You sing about the night, and I hear it even from as far away as my dreams. Beautiful work, Sven. Can I be your willful breeze, Come to touch, Your heart to ease? |

I come to thee in darkness, consent to be thy muse and yet the darkness holds its own share of sorrows the songs of sweetening muse are here for dark to meet songs behest for sharing with those assembled neath thy fragrance I come to thee in darkness, content to be thy muse and whispers in the darkness shalt be heard and felt with the heart in dreams or visions within dark's domain to speak of love and wonder in thine arms I come to thee in darkness, hell bent to be thy muse respond in kind for I have waited long thy touch and call to me fill me with pride and in the dark we alone shalt peer into promise and I wilt hold back the dawn for thou...only thou Sorry  Keth < !signature--> Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life.

Sven kind sir, this is truly beautiful. May the day come that the dark lady will be your muse and bring on the light so all can see your face deep in love. I love the darkness, it hides my fears. |
