Burning So Brightly
The impending day approaches, and sleep won’t come…
My brain burns brightly with the thoughts of you…
You are the spark of the universe that sets all things in motion…
Away from you, your presence is calling me back
And yet those sound like desperate words
How can I tell you that I carry you with me
Feeling of your warmth even now,
The majesty of your presence and form unfolding before me
The suppleness of your shoulders through the darkness of your hair
The gentle contour of your neck against my lips
Your scent pressed into me
And the taste of you on my lips
This longing to taste you again and always
Sensations of your glistening body melting into mine
Our bodies entangled as you lace your legs through mine
Your lulling whispers fill my ears
Speak those words to me softly again, “More kisses here”
I relax into the feeling with you
Surrendering, without the desire to discern where I begin, and you end
It is all taking root, and we are one
And it feels like coming home
