Promised Dew
The soft whisper of your honeyed voice
Falls on my ears like dainty kisses,
Sun drenched and full of promise.
The gentle touch of your sweet mouth
Lingers on my heated skin,
Causing my heart to race alarmingly.
My fingers tremble with anticipation
As l watch your tongue slip between
The soft petals of your mouth
And I want you with desperation,
With longing so deep that the only
Thing that keeps me sane,
Keeps me from shattering into very
Sharp, small condensed pieces of
The purest energy is the way your
Smile bursts upon me with the force
Of a million suns, spreading warmth
Within my mind with a voice
Which claims me solely
And eases my impassioned heart:
'Forever more'.
