Leave the lights on so I can see
Every inch of you
Never deprive my body
Of experiencing everything that you do
Everything that you are
Everything that I love
Everything that I want so desperately
If you must switch off the incandescents
Do it on a clear night when the moon is full
Leave the windows open and let the beams be acquiescent
Of our desire to love in cosmic candlelight so beautiful
So I do not miss
Each place I wish to kiss,
And lick,
taste,
bite.
Let the light show you the hunger in my eyes
And how my body writhes
And fruitlessly tries
To get closer to you
Closer than separate beings can achieve
When they are trapped in two bodies
Try just as hard to get closer to me
