I know you need me
I can hear your breathing.
I know you feel desire
Your body is on fire.
I can feel you wanting it
I can't imagine a better fit.
Your eyes are in a different place
Though you're looking at my face.
I can't get enough of this
Let me reach that total bliss.
I'll never be close enough to your body
Contact alone won't make me happy.
Even when our skin is together
That touch doesn't last forever.
The scary thing about this moment
Are the emotions that truly own it.
You're not in control of what you feel
Primal urges take the wheel.
And in the moment you are released
Almost blind from pleasure increased.
For a few moments you are free
To simply enjoy, feel, be.
The best part is that special clarity
To forget life in its entirety.
I love that another person's touch
Can make me feel and forget so much.
I can have a moment of selfish ecstasy
Just from you lying next to me.
Exhausted, hot, breath abated
Explored, enjoyed, totally sated.
Each explosion better than the last
Savouring it but wanting it fast.
Return to me, soon, so I can show you
The love you gave me reciprocated too.
