Wishes
Know me now,
my taste,
my touch,
the softness
of my kiss

Hold me tight
as lovers do,
without speaking
a single word

Feel my body
respond to you
as my breath
quickens

Bring me to the
brink of ecstasy
on waves of passion
surrendered

I will find joy
in a contended smile
and the slowing of
your breathing

Watch my face in
afterglow and
snuggle closer still
