bring on the rain

bring on the rain 

let it beat against the panes 

bring the lightning and thunder 

as we snuggle and settle down 

we have no other thoughts 

nowhere else to be 

as searching lips explore 

where warm hands were before 

you feel the quivers 

but it isn't from a chill 

and candlelight shines 

on the treasure you seek 

with each moan and whisper 

with a quaking surrender 

the monsoon that rages outside 

is nothing like the passion 

in this room
