The Price of Passion

The music thumped
A slick hot beat
Smoother than caramel
Just as sweet

Pressed together
Skin on skin
Bump and grind
Slide right in

A casual caress
A heated look
A whispered invitation
Was all it that it took

She promised him heaven
With a flick of her tongue
Something so right
Was surely not wrong

He couldn’t resist
Her fiery embrace
The kiss of her lips
And her sweet honeyed taste

In the heat of the night
Passion cried out
A moment of bliss
A flicker of doubt

He knew his mistake
When she told him her fee
The price was too high
Her love was not free

So he walked away
Contemplating the cost
His wallet was empty
And his innocence was lost
