I open the room...
the door closes behind us,
her gentle hand in mine
pulls me closer, then releases
  she whispers like we’re being
  watched   Take all of me
the darkness has her first
and then the predawn lights
that stream and sparkle over
her through the balcony glass
  she whispers like our time
  is short   Take all of me
her body is smoke soft and
separating as I move into it,
she rolls and swirls and curls
below, beside and above me
  she whispers like I haven’t
  heard her   Take all of me
the room is changing from
corner black and shadow gray
to sunrise saffron and coral,
our embrace dissipates cold
  she whispers as she slowly
  fades away   Take, take... take
