What Are You Waiting For

You close your eyes and sigh
As my lips search the back of your neck
Kissing down the delicate curve of your bare shoulder
Every breath deeper and faster than the one before
I slowly make my way back up again
I feel your pulse quicken beneath the feel
Of warm lips on cool skin

You tilt your head back
Muscles tense
Anticipating what comes next
A nibble
A soft bite
A breathy moan

Oh my God

And I feel you
I taste your hot dewy skin on my tongue
Every breath is audible
Gasp and moan
Gasp and moan
In rhythm with your heartbeat
The thunderous pounding in your ears
Reciprocating the ache between your thighs

Harder

So I dig in
Sinking my teeth into your tender neck
With one hand, you grab the back of my hair
And pull me in deeper
With the other, you run your fingernails
Down my back
Sending a violent chill through my spine
You scream

Now

Your eyes speak a language I’ve never heard
And yet I understand
Our lips meet with such fury
Such passion
Our bodies entangled
Pressed so closely together
We leave no room for doubt
Both writhing
Both trembling
Both knowing
This is what we’ve been waiting for

Desire

You seductive creature
Hiding behind closed doors
Between tangled sheets
Beneath the surface
Invisible hands guiding mine over skin
Smooth and taut
Fingers that never fumble
Plunging deep into the center of my longing
Pooling warm and slowly
At the base of burning thighs

You, my eternal Darkness and Light
Immersed in your shadow as you hover over me
Always watching
Daring me into submission
Whispering words that tip toe
Across my willing skin
Rousing the ache

I dream of your perfect mouth
As it devours every curve
Every curve
Your lips marking the path
Of my corruption

You dark-eyed goddess
My Venus
My bliss
I tremble at the very thought of you
Aroused
Unrestrained by your desire to ravish me
Take all I am, my love
I’m yours

The Breaking Point

You pretend you do not know
Velvet words caressing bare skin
So warm
So pink
So willing
Pushing past my sanity
Stroking the razor’s edge
Just to feel the sting
A sweet release

I stumble over thoughts of you
Your words
Your mouth
Your thighs
I am lost in you completely
So I wait
With my words and my desire
Both on the tip of my tongue

Calliope

Oh, My Divine Madness
My Muse
These insufficient words will never define
The ways in which you move me!
I’ve crawled on hands and knees to your water’s edge
Drowning in my desire

You test my patience
My limits
My breaking point
You remain silent for so long
Giving me nothing to cling to
Provoking my angst
Until I shatter
I suffocate
I die
With one whisper spilling from your lips
You give me life
I begin to gather my pieces
Always minus one…
And the ache begins again

I taste you in every raindrop
Every color
Every fragrance
Every sound
You are my symphony
My heart in the palm of your hand
Pulsating to the tempo of your voice
The click of your pen
The flick of your tongue
The touch of your brush on my canvas
Hot flesh melting like wax
My metamorphosis
My state of becoming

My devotion is incessant
My love is immortal
You are the keeper of my words
And my heart
I long for a place where you and I exist as one
Where your heart is your own
And there is nothing separating us but skin

My Pathos

I’ve always floated among the clouds
Leaving the world below
Peering down only to laugh
At the trouble I’ve left behind
I live alone in my world
In my darkness
Safely hiding away in my head
Here I am powerful
Here I am in control
Then along came you

What a beautiful illusion you are
Appearing out of thin air
Swallowing me whole
Into a dream
Penetrating my armor
Seeping into my pores
Becoming my every breath
Every heartbeat
Every thought
Every word
And I revel in you
Unrestrained
Uninhibited
Unbound

You stay an arm’s length away
No matter how far I reach
I only almost touch you
You are my violent storm
You are the gravitational pull at my thighs
You are my desire descending

I want you
All of you
Tongue tracing pink lines
The arch of your back
Your knees bent
Trembling
Both hands tangled in my hair
Whispering
Begging
Gasping quickly, softly
Feeling your rhythm
Silencing screams with carnal kisses
Staring into your dark eyes
The moment you come into existence

We have and have not
This need remains unfulfilled
How do I wake from such a dream as this?
So tangible
So real
So devastating
My heart weeps for you
I mourn the loss of not knowing
I ever had a piece missing
You are a constant reminder of
My passion
My longing
My love
