In The Morning

The day is waning
Full of promises
Of the upcoming night

Eyes of emerald
Lips of ruby
Entice me into love

Drowning my senses
With silky soft hair
And alabaster skin

Your kisses
Your caresses
Leave me reeling

A night of passion
We lay together
In a tender embrace

But the morning light
Reveals it’s secret
Of an empty room
Save me and her lingering perfume
