Wonderland

Could I love you more as you lie there asleep?
Upon my heart forever is your beautiful brand.
I couldn�t imagine a love so true & deep
As the love we�ve created in our wonderland.

I took a glance at you from across the fire,
You took in my frozen heart until it warmed.
Then, you stared into my eyes with a hot desire.
I gave myself completely; my virgin heart disarmed.

My thirst for passion quenched as you walked by,
Which love�s heat warmed my frigid soul.
You�re my antidote; My divine remedy�
Unhealthy & lonely, into your arms I crawl.

This fact gathered, and this love affair will prove�
Love�s fire heats water�water cools, not love.
