ASHLEY MAWERE



ASHLEY MAWERE

SWEETER AT DAWN

Allured by day,
As night fades
I'm enticed,
Desire is but lust
A remembrance of
dusk I forgot.
Enticed yet sedate
Appeased I'll stay
upon thy lips to taste.

Allured by day
Give me reason to stay
Promise me one bite
Though twice I'll taste
If three fingers sweet
Night fades I'm enticed

Desire is but lust
What made me stay?
The taste, the touch
the scent or you?
We drink we toast
But dawn escapes
with thoughts of you.

Though enticed
I'll sit sedate
Appeased by memories
I’ll stay
Upon thy lips to taste.






THE NEED

Amused by fragrance
Overwhelmed by indulgence
Appeased by seduction
Intoxicated by desire
Tell me what it is
To feel but a need

Amused by fragrance
I'm breathless at dawn
Overwhelmed by indulgence
Why resist at noon
Appeased by seduction
I'll stay at dusk
Intoxicated by desire
I'm yours at night
But my soul
feels the need

A need not to be amused
A need not to indulge
A need not to be seduced
A need not to desire
A need not to find myself
holding your heart

A need not to be amused
By a presence soon gone
A need not to indulge
In games with no goal
A need not to be seduced
By beauty in sight
A need not desire
Thy love meant for another
A need to walk away
From thoughts of loving you






LOST AT SEA

In denial, not the Nile
Rejection not for imperfection
A mess but still no message
Lost in time
Drowned by the tide
Lost at sea, please set me free.

They roar so I flee
Full of emotion yet
I'm still not in motion
They scream so I plead
In my head I scream so loud
Full of tears in silence I sit
Lost in tears, hear me please.

I denied the depression
I rejected the regression
I messed up the message
I simply lost track of time
Drowned by the tide
Lost at sea, tell me
Do you hold the key?

The key
To unlock my smile
The key
Towards perfection
The key
To a message of hope
The key
For a door that no one locked
Remind me again sir
Why are we out at sea?
