Lonely Nights With You

There are times
when I feel so alone
that I can no longer bare
to stand
(My Knees buckle
under the weight)

When the morning
arrives with bitterness
I struggle to believe
that there is someone
waiting for me
in some unknown future
(A fate
that I pray may be mine)

I'm tired
of these nights of purel ust
(tired of tasting someones flesh
but denied the sweet scent
of their soul)
I want to feel love
emanate
from every moan,
every word spoken in ecstacy
I long for every caress
to be carved from it
(There is no emotion of any worth
in these lonely nights I spend with you)
