Fit Me Like a Glove III

Fit Me Like a Glove III

A Poem by Siddartha Beth Pierce

The moth has come to the flame

but not for naught

we shall show them all what we've got

give it a shot!

 

In the arm to temper thee

in the mouth to whimper me

in the head to end it all

 

Yet that will not befall

either one of us you see

because together we are love

and therein we lie together

 

Lay us down my darling dear

I whisper now in your ear

as you sleep so dreamily

it is you that I do love

now come to my love

once more

fit me like a glove.

Nice "fit me like a glove," reminds me of The Smiths "Hand In Glove" and also "the moth has come to the flame" is like "Reel Around the Fountain." Great job.(sorry big smiths fan here)
