Erase the pain of lovers I erase
Tell me, my love, of death do tell
Face my tragic truth hidden in my face
Sell my lost body, buy my soul to sell
Surging spark igniting sweet passions surge
Trace my contours of my silk skin retrace
Emerging love for my love emerging
Race of passion my heart began to race
Efface my lust; massage me to efface
Urge exposed my desire; fulfill my urge
Embrace my skin; come within my embrace
Purge me my sin; come inside me and purge
Fell my love to death; by my lust he fell
Farewell my mask; my darkened soul farewell

Amazing! I really like this! You write with a passion that sends tingles up my spine. The Shadow Sonnet is very hard to weave into poems with emotion but you have mastered it. I'm so impressed.
Love,
Amera♥
