aching heart

scorpio

i was born in the cold of november
under the waning libra moon
with blue velvet in my button eyes
and rose petals blooming from my hair
i was a valentine's day love child
born by love, live by love, live for love
sensuality coursing through my veins
like icy hot, neon-electric currents
pumping from my ever beating heart
driven by seduction, running barefoot
into the rolling horizon
feet planted for pure love
a mystery with misery
because my misery loves company
and has an appetite for your affection
it growls and burns and rumbles
and howls your name
so i swirl my tongue around yours
just so you can get a taste
and maybe i'll stay and
lick you like soft ice cream
and maybe i leave, it's in my nature
can you blame me?
but the longing for love
that lives in the pit of my stomach
will cry out for you
and look up above, upon ever spinal nerve,
every branch of my rib cage
it will see where you live in my day dreams
dancing on top of the blue velvet in my eyes
flames burning behind you
