In this life
Only one
You will find her
The love that burns

That never ceases to burn in your chest
Stopping clocks

Whether they sleep by your side or another’s
you never really fall asleep

without her, you are emptiness
A not quite sure, a don’t know how

A love that holds up under the light
That fills you up with every shade

I long to undress you with words
Stanzas that leave you breathless
As poetry drowns you in ecstasy
Drawing agony and moans from deep within

Resist if you will
I dare you
Turn your face to the tidal wave
Defy me

Make me work for your love
I want to beg you
Please you
Please only you

To have these words coursing through your veins from head to toe
Then back again
And again
And again

Bound by whispered shackles
Until you perspire poetry
It’s all consuming
And possess you

To be combined
Entwined by the words
It was always you and I
meant for this moment

This love
Making love
Our love
I love you
I love you
I love you
