And If I Could

And if I could,
I’d drown myself
inside the sweetness
of your kisses.

And if I could,
I’d lose myself
within the fire
of your passion.

And if I could,
I’d leave myself
inside the shelter
of your loving.

Hunger

Hold me,
just like this,
willing,
tender,
strong.

Cherish me,
just like this,
calming,
claiming,
dear.

Love me,
just like this,
completely,
absolutely,
forever.

In a Fog

Cloudy eyes
that cannot see clearly
the words on the screen.

Cloudy mind
that cannot see clearly
the light in her smile.

Cloudy heart
that cannot see clearly
the beauty of her soul.

Stare

I’d like to be the one
at the end of that
heated stare,
burning from its wild
intensity.

I’d like to be the one
at the root of that
pointed look,
thrilling to its sharp
attentiveness.

I’d like to be the one
at the start of
that naked stare,
open to its raw
desperation.
