    A BURNING FLAME

     When I close my eyes, and think of you,
    It lights a fire down deep inside -
    Of love, and lust, and passion, too...
    A burning flame I cannot hide.

    I feel the softness of your lips,
    I feel your breath upon my ear,
    I feel the bite of your fingertips,
    As they in passion pull me near.

    I smell the fragrance of your hair,
    I hear the whisper of my name,
    I feel the bond that we both share,
    As we gently stoke that burning flame.

    I taste the sweetness of your skin,
    I feel your flesh melt with mine,
    As our souls are joined, and once again,
    We've shared the fruit of our mortal vine.

    When I close my eyes, and think of you,
    It lights a fire down deep inside -
    Of love, and lust, and passion, too...
    A burning flame I cannot hide.

    Smoothly delivered, bro. On Gates Avenue we call that runnin' a serious rap. "Father" is the pivotal theme of your OP.COM I.D. - Running a rap like that It's not difficult to see how you got to be one (LOL).

    Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.
