Unashamed Love

And before she had even finished singing the first line he found himself plopping back onto the chair, knees weak as her words sunk in.

Feed me your bread and wine
and save me from damnation.
Tell me in whispered
scriptures your love.
making me succumb to your temptation.

Her eyes briefly connected with his emerald orbs and he found himself unable to look away from the intensity behind her gaze. And his skin grew warm. For a second the rest of the world dissipated. Entranced by the seduction seemingly embedded in the angles of her slender shape, the minute she smirked and gave him a flirtatiouus wink he was convinced she was sent by some cruel being to torture him.

Clinging onto your religion
you baptized me in confessions that night...
and I never knew no other salvation
in those sheets with you,
that felt so right...
