"lay down" I said
"over there... where the pale pink satin sheets cascade over the bed" 

"are you going to take care of me?" she asked 
"give me something beyond purity, at last..."  

after that, she didn't have much to confess

because after the love we make  
is where awaken revelation comes to bless    

I've given her a frostbitten heart to take 

yet it does more harm than good
just like I knew it would...
