Passion
Passion-
Endlessly
Carefully
Maddeningly
There.
On the outskirts,
Your words touching
Something soft and
Tender inside.
Or right on the surface,
Gripping me
With painful intensity,
Almost forcing confrontation.
Everything that's me
Cries out for that touch
And when it comes…
The dam bursts.
Your body is…
Like a poem
I could read
With my fingers.
A delightful surprise
Of plains and angles-
Translating into art,
War, and vibrant.
It was a revelation,
A discovery, a finding,
That I was still…
Awake and alive.
My lungs fill
And my breath catches,
Heart stuttering,
Senses on fire.
Intoxicants-
Your gaze
Your scent
Your taste.
Hunger
Overwhelming
All- consuming
Exciting.
Passion.
