Can I Be?

I want to be open enough To receive all that you have to offer To make love to your entire being Until even your soul is like A molten ball of euphoric flesh Mixing every flavor of you Savoring your essence Leaving an aroma akin to worship Even creation pays attention FEAR – false evidence appearing real I recite it over and over Mentally feeling my past hurt Disappointment, mistrust Stabbing at my present Longing for your touch Craving your kisses Pushing the idea of your femininity Wrapped around my masculinity Back into Pandora’s Box “Don’t think that! Don’t be in a hurry!” The Rules of Love twist and turn in my head! Repeat Replay Rephrase Restate Why is love always a GAME? Why can’t I just be who I am? Eager to love Eager to please Venereal, erotic, funny, passionate Easily read, easily attached Easy to love, spoiled to the core Maybe...I’m just in love with the idea of being in love?
