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. ![]() ------------------ *Elizabeth* "Dwelt a maid belov'd and cherish'd by high and low, But with autumn leaf she perish'd, long time ago..." "Something sweet, something sort of grandish, sweeps my soul when thou art near..." |

Very well done Master...possibly clothes instead of skin in line two though. |

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