Song of David
by slaveofone

1:1 Thou art to me as beautiful

O my love, as moonlight
Delicate as mist
Comely as the fawn
Terrible as rushing waters
To enter within thy heart
Is to cross the seas of madness

To be within thine arms
Is to rest in a glade of Paradise

1:2 I shiver in cavernous depth
Beyond the reach of fire
Crowned about by ice

Compassed in by cold
And lonely desolation
But deep inside I burn
On that ember of your passion
You left before your leaving
To brand me your one desire

1:3 When comes that day awaiting
The softness of thy breasts
Rest my head thereon
Caress her gentle slopes
Kiss her pleasing peaks

If only would the sun
By those cycles always spinning
Bring me to the mounts
For to sup thy nectar sweetly
