Aftershock

THE MEMORY OF YOUR BODY
AGAINST ME
IN THE NIGHT
I TREMBLE
WITH DESIRE
THE SOUND OF YOUR VOICE
SENDS SHIVERS
DOWN MY SPINE
YOUR LOVE FLOWS
THROUGH MY VEINS
PULSATING
EAGER TO REACH
THE HEART OF ME
IN THE SILENCE
I AM REFRESHED
BY THE THOUGHT OF YOU
I HAVE FOUND MY PLACE
HERE
IN THE SHELTER
OF YOU.
