Dizzy, dazed and dazzled
I fall into your pink pools of sunshine
Saturnine smooth skin that I adore, I fall into your heart and I
Trick myself to stay alert
Risking it all
A daring feat to scare off a weak and mad raven
Clouds crumbling in your Goddess grasp
Turning it into a citrus mist
Icy over the landscape
Oval eyes that tower over the earth so ethereal and mysterious
Nothing will stop me from holding your tender blushing velvet azul tears, as I kiss them tender-warm in your dizzy sunshine pools

The last line extending beyond the short bursts of the rest of the piece accentuates the theme!
