Wild Man's Song For A Lady - by Vicente Reyes

Wild Man's Song for a Lady

Open your eyes and kiss me twice.

Once for the distance crossed,

again for Eternity's sake.

Come hold me tightly and be mine,

beautiful child of the sublime.

Feel your tender breast upon my chest

so warmly pressed.

Feel my body tautly wrapping arms of love

around your shoulders.
I will by my tingling touch

awaken dreams nobody else knows.
Nobody else can feel me present as you do,

honey-eyed beauty.
I am the wild man whose unfettered passion

pours for you,

Whose clear eyed primal strength

will lift you,

Whose touch will stir your womanly ways

and possess you;
For you were born for me and your heart tells you.
Wander not the streets

and seek not strange love;
There is no match in any other man for you,
For you are a wild woman

of fiery desire like mine,
And unless my blazing torch touch you

you will be cold.
Cast not your beautiful body

into a lesser man's arms.
There is no other who can

like me cherish your charms.
Upon your skin I did begin

a serenade just yesterday,
And I have yet to teach you

songs I want to play.
No other woman can be your equal now, Love.
You are my Aeolian harp

just like Ulysses had his bow,
And I await your growing passion

with manly patience,
For you will cry in dissatisfaction

until I kiss you,
Until my hungry hands again

stroke you tenderly,
And my hot breath on your neck

makes you quiver in delight,

When I excite you and you

so sweetly evoke my kisses with

the passion your love loves to give me.

My hand is closer, take it now --

surrender, sweet lady!
