An Ember

It’s hard to find a comparison
to what we had, when sharing some
I’m sure I could try to judge
But what gave us was such a flood
Hard to find those words
Without being typically perverse

Recalling each touch now
Was like never having felt before
My body was shuddering
You know I wanted much more

Ecstasy so hard to describe
I was an ember in a fire
You kept fanning the flames
Until they grew into a rage
Exploding in pleasure and pain
