Lusting For 'True Love'
We lust to unlock love
To understand how it controls
Sadly, little do we know
That it is only shallow
As we borrow each other and bone
Gasping for air behind the doors
Our eyes never stare at souls
But beg for something more desirable
Maybe a private show
Or something that lets you go
Take a deeper breath on my neck
And make me wet
I just want to be sprawled on this hotel bed
