MAHOGANY RIVERS
Mahogany rivers
Flow and flow
Over pale shoulders
Mahogany rivers flow

Velvet smooth skin
Creamy and inviting
Her freesia scent
So tantalizing

Chocolate orbs
With knowledge and understanding shine
As long as we both exist
She’ll only ever be mine

Mahogany rivers
Flow and flow
Over pale shoulders
Mahogany rivers flow

Lips of rosebuds
Soft and pink
Lips like rosebuds
Soft and pink

Smile so bright
In the middle of the night
Where once there was darkness
Now is light

Innocent facade
Selfless parade
Sweet as lemonade
My good byes I could never bade

Mahogany rivers
Flow and flow
Over pale shoulders
Mahogany rivers flow
