My dark desire
Mine eyes were opened wide, the day me met, dear Sire,
With thou I wished have lain, thou won me at first sight.
No matter what to gain, be it mine hardest fight,
Mine steps gone slant and slide, a bird caught on a wire.
So life is a wild ride, to hate or to admire,
The enemies are slain, forgotten if this' right,
Forgotten my soul's stain, thou art my only light,
To be at your wild side, may it be joy or dire.
Thine wild heart not to tame, my craving for thine treasure
Will kill me, still I play; lost, fallen to thine lure.
Forgotten fear and shame, thou art my only pleasure,
So haunt me, love, and stay, destroy my soul for sure.
From thee I cannot hide, that passion's burning fire
Hath set all morales vain, gone lost with thee at night.
A plea my tears like rain: come close and hold me tight
As thine eternal bride, my guilty dark desire.
