A White Rose for a Pink Vase

how I tremble when you look at me
and pull me into your strong arms
I'm weak with desire
you've built a bonfire inside my heart
with your friction
it's like romance fiction
you're my hero
you've saved me from myself
nobody else
can tear away my mask
and love me
revealed
