The Winter evening is lonely
and the wind is howling my name
My body heat is failing me
but burning all the same...

The night is long as I toss and turn
and the sweat rolls in my eyes
Round and round and round they go
The thoughts in my mind do churn...

Once I had a fine lover
to shelter and satisfy me
But now the emptiness is so defined
Such a terrible quandary!

Forsaken pillow on my bed
Sheets, smooth and soft to feel
Silken hair on moonlit wall
This picture can't be real...

Perhaps I'm just peculiar
Whatever is the reason?
I've heard it said a hundred times
"To everything's a season."

Give me tangles in my hair
and tear away the quilt
Please make love to me right now
and make my body wilt...

Give me something special
unearthly and surreal
Tangle up this Silken hair
and rapture that will heal....

"No matter how great you are, you'll never be greater than yourself."

Just so soft and subtle, and oh so lovely.
