The whiteness of confusion

Is unfolding from my mind

I stare around in wonder

Have I left my life behind?

I catch the scent of ambergris

And turn my head, surprised

My gaze is caught and held and I

Am helpless...mesmerized

Panacea, liquid grace

Oh let me touch your fragile face

Enchantment falls around me

And I know I cannot leave

Here's a meaning for my life

A shelter from the storm

Pacify my troubles with

Her body, soft and warm

Naked in our unity

A smile for every tear

Gentle hands that promise me

Comfort through the years

Yet I know I must be gone

Before the light of dawn

Panacea, passion pure

I can't resist your gentle lure

My heart will lie beside you

And my wandering body grieves
