Personification Piece

So this was one of my options for my personification piece.  The first two stanzas (first especially) - I am decently happy with what I managed to get them to, though they still need work (always).  The third stanza - What do you think? Continue? End it there? Can you give me opinions?  Also, the abstract concept of hope was supposed to be incorporated, but I think I prefer it without. Please give me opinions and possible revisions! Thanks guys!!

Love, Lust, and Passion

Love buttons his shirt,
Knowing nothing of the
Day, the
Night. The
Moments, the
Memories
To come.

Lust is in a light pink dress,
Flowing and innocent.
When she reveals herself,
Uncovers herself,
From the sheets that hide her,
You'll see
Red Lace.
You'll see her.
Her body.
Skin.

Passion is the moon.
the moon,
the stars,
That night.


EDIT:

Befriend my Heart

Passion holds the moon above their
souls.
Befriending
the sky,
the stars,
That night.

  1. I agree. I really enjoyed the first two stanzas, I feel like you captured love and lust well P: and it wasn't crude or anything. But the last stanza, though I like the idea of it, I feel it is lacking a little in comparison with the first two. Maybe a little more description? Overall it was good and I liked it. (:
