A Christmas wish.



On Christmas day I'll make a wish
that you'll be mine 'till the end of time
I'll kiss your lips tinged with wine
intoxicate your thoughts your mind.

I'll steal your heart, I'll capture your soul,
keep you warm when cold winds blow
I'll hold you tight all through the night
I'm here for you, don't fuss and fight.

Give your love to me
toss away the key
let me love you
it's destiny.

Lay here at my side
watching stars streak through the skies
make love to me 'till dawn
give yourself completly.

What have I got to lose
only my heart battered and bruised
my ego, self respect,
only my mind trying to make sense
of emotion, denial, resistance,
the core of existance.
