Fragrant, come closer, she said

Not nearly alone enough, I swore

My hand, she took, - heart, she

Stole with ---feeling

Fragrant, - closer, she paused

- on my own, I -

Her hand, - thigh, she

- my entirety

Shrouded me in -

Pungent, come, she - me in

Laid her -, I walked right on

Not because of some voodoo

Nor - charms

But I am -,

I, just

-

weak
