ocher

You offer me debilitation,
Sucking from me all sense of decadence.

You look to me with languor
Seeking to hide from me a frenetic need for lust.
Sauntering slowly past, fingers trail across my back
Smile and cleavage offered indiscriminately.

Smiles melt to melancholy
Eyes disguise crocodile tears
As real as your sense of poetic justice
Lingering in the shambles of our clothing.

But that comes later.
Tempt me with a lacy bra shoulder strap
That won’t seem to stay up,
Cups that enunciate your needs clearly.

A shared taste for lust and passion
Fills the room with music
Of lingering kisses, moans and sighs
Disguising the sound of zippers undone.

But the animal unfurls from within your belly
As you taste the salt of my skin
And you find that taste to you liking
Enough to bite. Draw blood. Screaming when I gasp.

Catlike stretches, claws extended, as you rake me
And take me as you will.
Binding me to your wishes
As if I would have it any other way.

Sate your hunger, satisfy your lust.
Leave me lingering on the edge of exhaustion,
Purring as I spoon you,
Tears streaked down to your chin.

Accentuate the sound, the melody of desire
But I find the harmony of love you require.
