Pieces

Michael Randolph King

Intensiveness of overwhelming desire
Runs through my veins
The bright spark that starts a fire
Just before it rains

Your love guarded in my heart
As we wallow in imperfection
We were torn apart
We made one wrong selection

Times are tough
We must be strong
I make your beautiful body shake
You give me a place to belong
So much is at stake.

Our passion is invincible
The quest is true
We will pick up the pieces
Just me and you
