Desires of the Heart

If my arms could only reach you
I would hold you with such intensity
that the stars in the heavens would be dimmed
by the glow of Us
My passion so great, my need so deep
that it threatens like a hungry ocean
to swallow up my being
and willingly would i fall into that void
lose my self so completely in you
that i would cease to be
knew i only that your arms were there
to hold me
to feel your lips on mine
to know the secrets of your soul
to take into me completely
the untold depths you
I would drink you
every nuance of your body
every imperfecton
would become a holy shrine
to which my lips would bring sweet offerings again
and again
and my hands would worship willingly
for the body holds the soul
and it is from the soul this passion springs
boundless and undeniable.
i would memorize your eyes
the rhythm of your heart
the taste of you
the feel of your skin on mine
if i could only touch you
if my arms could only reach you...
