A SHADE OVER MY SOUL


 

I have desired for you

To sense you next to me

A shade over my soul

enlightened  only when

laying on your breasts

A willful hunger for your touch

 even my body aches for you

Two lovers enfolding into one

The odor of your body

The tenderness of your breath

To flavor once more of you

The saltiness of your skin

The sweetness of your lips

To know the softness of your body

Against the rigidness of mine

Your skin alongside my skin

Your breast against my chest

And feel the rhythm of your heart

I have desired for you
