take me

i feel you're heart pounding,

beneath thin layers of skin,

you breathe on my neck,

forcing each tiny hair to do a standing ovation,

for your beautiful pulse.

i'm craving your body,

every part of it--from your lovely mind, to the tip of your pinky toe.

i want to feel your bones,

pressing against mine,

i want to feel our bodies,

intertwining until we become

one.

your scent invades my most private thoughts,

traveling distances around me,

making its way into my veins.

my blood rises to the surface,

warm with lust, excitement, and fear all at once.

your fingers brush against me,

and goosebumps raise throughout my body.

i want to feel the warmth of your hands,

cradling me, like the sun holding up the clouds,

hold me for eternity.
