Longing

I long to hold you close to me
And give you love eternally.

Thrust my fingers through your hair
Lose myself in that smoldering stare.

Press my mouth to your hungry lips
Close the distance of passing ships.

Wrap you in my warm embrace
See the love etched in your face.

Feel your heartbeat next to mine
As our bodies, intertwine.

Bring you to that powerful peak
Sweet ecstasy is what I seek.

To close my eyes and just let go
More than you will ever know.
