All I Know

You're all I know of raw desire;
With each caress and fevered kiss
My arms become as liquid fire.

Not for sale to any buyer,
My passion is not spent amiss;
You're all I know of raw desire.

Your touch is all that I require
To bring me to the edge of bliss,
My arms become as liquid fire.

There is no other I admire,
no other lover I could wish.
You're all I know of raw desire.

Love will always know a liar,
My lips speak truths you cannot miss.
My arms become as liquid fire.

Your satisfaction I require
So I again give in to this;
You're all I know of raw desire,
My arms become as liquid fire.

Welcome Beki:
A wonderful, inspiring villanelle for sure.
Such symetry...such verve!
