Analysis of Desire



In you i see my own desire
With you I can build my own empire
We are both an entire
You help when I enquire
You the one I admire

In you there's a true delusion
Our love will never reach a conclusion
In our love theres no tension
I believe we can build a mansion
We give each other attention
And our love grabs affection
