A Gnawing Temptation

my trembling fingers reaching outwardly
through the umbrage of shadows
longing to feel your touch

my heart quickens beneath forbidden thoughts
as i thrust myself forward
in the pulse of my dreams

the quaver of my lips part in silence
to the kiss of temptation
appetence unfulfilled
