Won’t you stay,
My love?

Outside snow falls steady
Gusted by north wind
Tapping at our window
Inside these walls
A fire burns

Softly
So softly
Spread your
Raven hair
Upon my pillow

Gently
So gently
We will unfold
Our layers
Like origami flowers

Reveal the
Treasure at the core
Offer it like pearls
That dissolve
On our tongues

Won’t you stay my love?
turn the night on
now

Won’t you stay my love?
Turn the night on
Now?
Won’t you stay,
My love?

As bitter winds blow
and frost grows in ferns
Across the window
Inside these walls
A fire burns

Softly
So softly
Fall into my
Chocolate eyes
Across the pillow

Gently
So gently
I will rub
My hands across
Your silk skin.

Offer the
Tenderness in your core
In small gasps
That dissolve
On our tongues.

Won’t you stay my love?
Turn the night on
Now?
