a pursuit of sin

Come, come, sweet darling
Dance away
Watch the way my arms open to you
And follow where I dance
Chase me, darling
Follow my sprightly step
And away into the woods
Deeper and deeper into the shadows

Don’t I dance so gracefully?
Don’t you want to hold me in your arms?
But I’m just out of reach, my dear
Follow just a little farther

Fingertip grazed fingertip
And energy roused
You’re following faster darling,
And gaining step by step
Your hand slips ‘round my slender waist
And we stumble in the soft grass
And I, sitting there so prettily
With those eyes that haunt your dreams
My eyes are smiling for you my dear.
But not so prettily as its seems

With emerald promises in my eyes
Don’t I look so lovely here?
Sitting just out of reach
Lean in just a little closer, my dear.

I almost have you.
