Sun Paint Memories by Melodie Yvonne

He returns my smile with a steadfast stare
I look away, I mustn’t dare

Unfaltering is his seeming nature
I succumb to godlike stature

Tidal waves from brain to tip toes
Rush of passion fills my deep soul

And then in my dark innermost
Lust on fire swallows this host

His eyes pierce through and deep invade me
All my thoughts get lost and hazy

Then my eyes see aura’s mystery
I succumb, my heart is history

Never mind these thoughts I’m thinkin’
Hear his smile and hope escapes me

Then I walk from him descending
Sabotage to reach my ending

Don’t cry, though, I’ve made my memories
One day when I will forget me

Sun paint pictures make my history
And I’ll love the me that made me
