Everytime

Every time we’re together I want nothing more than for you to stay 

but at the beat of my yearning heart it is me who runs away 

from the painful truth of the life you live with her 

alone dreaming of the one you’ll never have with me

yet the magnetic pull 

draws us to each other time and again 

to play our parts in this blissful tryst of which we both don’t want to ever end. 

I will just have to live with having you in the fervent moments we share

and trust in the passion you relish on me with exquisite care

 in those fleeting moments 

when I feel you’re not there and again you dress and turn the knob to go 

all I know is this delicious treat of the forbidden is worth every dare, 

every time.
