It is a hunger
haunting my soul
knowing I have passions
I cannot control

Repenting the need
holding wanton within
doesn’t stop the burning
or want of your sin….

The ache still taunts me
when sleep is unfound
I hear your voice call to me
once more, I drown

Delving the darkness
feeling your fire
to love you, to love you
that is all I desire

Denial of your touch
still seeking in vain
reaching across midnight
come, love me again…..


~SEA~

Is there anyway to make the distance across midnight very short??
That's what I'd want to do for such a passionate lady. That inner fire should never be allowed to just boil in there....
Great poem Sea!

You would've loved what I was going to say till I remembered that it won't always be 4:AM.  Suffice it to say...crossing.


Forgetting all I'm lacking
Completely and complete
I'll take your invitation
You take all of me

To be brutally honest ... you amaze me with your depth of feeling and ability to convey such sensually potent thoughts in verse

I almost thought I was in Adult there for a minute.  This piece is so sensual.  I know of course it will be when I see your tag on a post.  Thank you for this one.
