Oh my dear, picture me on my knees,
When I ask you to let me bask in this moment a while longer,
Before you make your leave and leave me hollow again,
Let me feel complete and comfortable one minute more
One wonderful thing about loving someone like you
Is teaching someone who only knows how to go at full speed,
How to slow down and really enjoy the time spent doing things like this.
And hearing your full throttle heart match my andante metronome beat
I thought the word 'afterglow' was a myth until I saw you lying there,
Smiling at me like you weigh 7 pounds
And nothing can touch you
Although after the last half an hour where I did nothing but, I think we both know that's not true
Running my icy hands down your bare chest and feeling you shiver beneath my touch,
You look like you've seen heaven
And something tells me I could stab you to death,
and you'd still have that airy smile,
until the moment you drew your last breath.
Desire doesn't come close- passion and lust.
None of it describes what I feel for you.
Your body is a welcoming sanctuary for me and my love to go crazy
Traces of my favorite shade of red let's anyone who bear witness know exactly who's been visiting.
Curled up on top of you, you begin to stroke my hair.
You know exactly what to do to make my margarine heart melt for you.
I wouldn't prefer any noise other than the sound of you saying how wonderful I make you feel
And how you love me not despite what I do to you, but for it- and embracing it
Suddenly it dawns on me-
When those poets and fablists wrote about sirens, and the song they sing to trap their prey
I had assumed it was a luring piece,
Meant to entice
What I never knew, until tonight, listening to your soft voice, under your gentle hand,
Is that a sirens song is what keeps them coming back.
