The Light of Love

Dustin Michael Edwards

As I give to you my pleasure
Let me take away your pain
We'll indulge in our desires
For it is love we seek to gain

Draw me closer to your body
Beside the roaring fire
Tempt me with your love
Fan the flames of my desire

Bear to me your soul
Lay your feelings out on show
We were destined to be lovers
The seeds of love are ours to sow

Give in to your hunger
Press your lips against mine
Drink the nectar of our love
Silky smooth and so divine

Expose to me your heart
Set your inhibitions free
The light of love burns brightly
For now and all eternity
