Slave or Master? The softest caress I can ever remember, Scorched my soul like a burning ember, Bittersweet, addictive taste, Cannot bear a moment to waste, Flesh is stinging from your touch, Never believed I could want this much, I'm lost within you, and you within me. We're bound and tied for eternity. Who is the master? Who is the slave? Love that was shared, and freely we gave. Chains that bind that none do see, Handcuffed heart won't set me free. So take my flesh, my soul, my heart, I'd rather die than be apart, From you my love. "What is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies." -Aristotle |

WOW!!!!!! Tess..i felt this one....excellent... and very passionate...WHEW very well written, truly... The softest caress I can ever remember, Scorched my soul like a burning ember, Bittersweet, addictive taste, Cannot bear a moment to waste, Flesh is stinging from your touch, Never believed I could want this much, *SIGH* very nice, take care, jm Do you live by the book, do you play by the rules Do you care what is thought by others about you If this day is all that is promised to you Do you live for the present, the future the past... tracy chapman |
