Your Touch

I dream, and sense your presence near me
I know I'm not alone in my room
Then I see your beautiful face
Radiant, smiling, laughter dispelling gloom

Warming me, a night tease succubus
Kidding, joshing, stroking my back
I feel unspoken love in your ways
I smile, laugh and tease in attack

I trace my finger on your mouth
Your smile communicates your trust
Then deeper feelings take control
Overwhelming us we know we must

You can see the fire in my eyes
The passion, my very fire
The longing need to make us one
Driven by the hunger you inspire

Then we're together, clasping grasping
Our eyes alone, no words are spoken
My salvation, sleep o'ertakes me
Just your touch, a trust never broken



Great souls have wills; feeble ones have only wishes.

What a beautiful and romantic touch.  Very well written.
