Blood that rushes
Skin that flushes
Stomach that flips
Veins that throb
Heart that beats a staccato
Lungs filled with your fragrance
Head full of forbidden images
Hands yearning to hold---
Such is the rebellious state of my body!
You have devoured every inch of me;
Branded me with your fire,
Afflicted me with a sweet ache
That has my body writhing and singing
To the tune of your deep voice-
The vibrations of which I feel
Deep within my core
Tickling me, teasing me
Filling me completely
And yet, leaving me hungry for more.
Hungry to suck and swallow
My favourite words
That escape your tempting lips.
You say I’m unaffected?
I feel so small that
You can wrap your fingers around me

So weak that I can melt at your feet.
I ache for you.
I throb for you.
I burn for you.
You’re the sunlight that warms my blood,
A warm shower on a wintery night,
The sensuous scent I imagine on my pillow,
The intoxicated air I can’t breathe enough of,
The cause of my restless days and nights,
The object of my wild fantasies.
You’re all these and more.
So don’t test my restraint and say
That I’m unaffected.
Don’t provoke
The hungry animal inside me
To break loose.
