Your hands
Like water
Drip down my body
They gather in the valleys
And cascade down peaks
They quench my thirst
And plunge me into breathless depths
I taste them on my lips
As I watch them seep into my flesh
And pour inside me
Your tongue
Like fire
Licking my skin
I raise from the ashes
As you consume me
With every stroke of your flesh
Your desire
Like Air
Spins inside me
Courses through me
Slips beneath my skin
and fills me
Overcome
Leaving me gasping for breath
Your body
Like earth
Presses into me
And sifts through my fingertips
It builds me up
and dismantles me
It blankets me
It unhinges me
and pieces me back together
