​Solanum

In velvet nights, love’s whisper softly treads, Through silken shadows, it weaves its subtle art, But thorns lie hidden ‘neath the beauty’s beds.

With every touch, the heart more deeply bleeds, A masquerade where passion plays its part, In velvet nights, love’s whisper softly treads.

The rose’s scent, the soul so sweetly leads, Yet underneath, the poison tips its dart, But thorns lie hidden ‘neath the beauty’s beds.

A dance of light and dark that love concedes, Entwined in toxic vines that won’t depart, In velvet nights, love’s whisper softly treads.

Beneath the soft caress, the spirit pleads, For tender mercies, not a cruel heart’s chart, But thorns lie hidden ‘neath the beauty’s beds.

So hold the petals close, as love recedes, Remembering the pain when you must part, In velvet nights, love’s whisper softly treads, But thorns lie hidden ‘neath the beauty’s beds.
