Desire

I lie sated
tangled sheets twisted in desire
wrapped around my heated body
that still thrums to your tune
My languid eyes
follow your sinuous steps
drinking in the wonder
of your sinewy beauty
as you pick up clothes
shed in a hurry
I hold out a hand
in mute appeal
wanting to hold you close
be warmed by your heat
You turn
and your chiselled strength
takes my breath away
a wave of fresh longing
sweeps through me
I want to feel
your breath on my skin
your lips on every inch of me
I want to writhe and shake
shiver my way to ecstatic release
But once is all we have time for
You leave
transformed into
a respectable stranger
I must wait
until tomorrow's stolen tryst
