(This is a major rewrite - of a piece I wrote in early '98 - I'd truly be embarassed to reveal the original. - Having a 'real' focus for the words now must have helped.) I fall into sleep, I feel you seep in Into all my dreams like steam in the bath Although I am chilled, cold deep in my bone I feel your heat wash over me with force Joy knowing now I'm no longer alone Total adrift in the sea of your love Your presence permeates my heart, my soul Your eyes betray, I see there my yearning Your smile, a blanket, smothers my senses Your touch, a struck flint, sets sparks my burning Stealing my heart disappearing in shade Your laugh tantalizes, runs in the night Your body embraces mine, begins fire Our whispered love words flow in the darkness Filling me with overwhelming desire Mingled with chuckles I run seeking you I see your form, watch your lips making sounds Catching you, feeling the wetness I crave Tracing my fingers over your body Holding you laughing, I'm feeling more brave Your look in my eyes tells me all I need You're dreaming too, we're both longing for all We were seeking through the long cold daylight Our pulses are racing, kisses a blur Wanting deep passionate love in the night Passions are flowing and running amuck Four hands caressing, they're also clasping Emotions take charge now, hunger presides Torrid feelings begin welling from depths Where our long denied lustiness abides I'm covered with you, you're covered with me Darkness o'ershadows in turbulent sea All we've ever wanted so very much In this all our words then are drowned away I'm lost, feel only the love in your touch The first duty of love is to listen. |

Well done, Mr. Yeats. A great deal of imagery combined with underlying senses that you always manage to bring to the forefront so very well... a very good read, indeed! |

I couldn't write - were it not for the terrific inspiration you, my readers, give me - I truly love you all - I could not find better company |

Truly beautiful imagery, Bill. A definite keeper. I'd like to see this one with full punctuation, I think it would make it even more perfect. Corinne |

I only wish I had the passion and the ability you have to express love so beautifully. Surely, you inspire many with your words. |
