The storm of hearts

Godefridus Niemans

The storm of hearts

A strange temptation keeps me drifting on an ocean filled with your sweet lies
I lost control, went down and under , flushed away
in your dark brown eyes

Again and again I was lifted on sparkling waves
of wild desire
Passion turned into a storm as a vigorous fire that burned inside

I lost myself , a shipwreck victim
Tumbled and twisted as never before, thrown by tide
I found myself on the velvet of your naked shore

Two lovers tangled up together, nearly survived this storm of hearts
it was your arm I felt around my body
as my lucky rescue belt

I will never cruise on this sea for the rest of my life!
Unfortunately just fell in love
with my best friends wife!

How can I wipe this smell of guilt and shame
from the white sheets of our bed?

or was it just the storm to blame?
