Then I Knew

My mind infected

Thoughts distracted

Lips tracing the back your neck

I pull you in closer

 

Your breath careening over my mouth

Your chest heaving, caressing my face

My hands slowly traverse your quivering thighs

On the verge of exploding

 

Softly my name emerges from your throat

You are air-bound, legs locked around my torso

Tonight

I whisper your name as your top descends to the floor

 

Teach me the language of your body

Bilingual is my aspiration

My tongue expressive in ways words cannot match

Conversing with every centimeter of your majestic…perfect curves

 

A gentle squeal into the pillow as I rest between those ever shuddering legs

Tonight

Cantaloupe, Passion Fruit, Mango doesn’t taste as you do

From the night we met…

 

A feeling so foreign, I thought died, just lie dormant

You’ve awakened this fire under ash

Ash that repressed

I have returned now…with you

 

Every inch of you, sublime

Your skin, divine

Knees close to your shoulders, a glistening silhouette

Tears fill your eyes, as priceless as the rarest amulets

 

You rest after your climax

You taste your juices in my mouth

I place you on your side, from behind

You want it all, you want me inside

 

I ignored my urges, initially

We barely knew one another

But while with other women…

I only saw you

 

Then I knew

 

You had to be here

Screaming, sweating, purring…above, below, and beside me

Wrapped around my elbows as I carry you to the wall

Arms locked around my neck, you receive it deeply, my all

 

Your name travels from my throat to your left ear

You savagely bite my cheek and your nails dig along my spine

You want to be here, you want to be mine

Surpassing the heart and the physical; we’re making love to each other’s minds

 

Do you want me?

I want you.

Do you want me?

You have me.

 

Resisting my desire proved too grueling a task

No hiding, no mask

Kissing, deeply, the arch of your back

Sucking your buttocks drives you into a euphoric passion attack

 

We navigate this trance

Your plentiful cheeks being parted with my hands

“Too much” you claim, a coy smile

I supply more and in turn you pull your own hair, frenzied, wild

 

In the bed

On my wall

On to the shower

After leaving the floor

 

Our eyes met the first time

I knew then

I fought

But I knew then

 

You

Me

Here

Tonight

 

I ignored my urges, initially

We barely knew one another

But while with other women…

I only saw you

 

Then I knew
