Analysis of Love to Lust



Love to Lust

When I dipped you, I fell
When I kissed you, I rose
For I was in hell
Because the path that I chose.

You grabbed my hand
You pulled me out
No longer bland
No longer have doubt

When I touch you, I rush
When I kiss you, you blush
I know its not love
Just a powerful lust.
