Archive-title: Sweet Dreams
     

 You invade the bleak wastelands of my dreams,
 violating the privacy of my sleep.
 I welcome this strange invasion of my worlds
 as I welcome the strong sanctuary of your arms.
 Somehow I knew that tonight you would come
 for I have scented myself
 with the essence of wild roses,
 draped my body in a silken gown,
 and now await your lingering caress.
 My lips whisper your name
 and you come to me,
 dulling my senses
 with the sweet opium of your kiss.
 I open myself to you
 and you enter my very being,
 as together we dance the pagan love song
 choreographed by our desire
 and performed upon the stages of our passion.
