Ardor

My head it searchingly aches
My eyes close just to wait
And I want just
One thing...
My heart pounds within my throat
My stomach is afloat
And I want just
One thing...
This room is getting smaller
As the night grows longer
And I want just
One thing...
Such prolonged pendulousness
A dare will only best
And I want just
One thing...
If only prescience were mine
Warmest solace divine
And I want just
One thing...
But the unknown still taunts
All the maybes still haunt
And I want just
One thing...
Amber memories in flame
Desires whisper a name
And I want
Just one thing...
I am ardent and fervent
Zealous and determined
And I want
Just one thing...
I want
You
