Dangerous Thoughts

Aching with desire
my thoughts are filled with you
thoughts I should not dare to think
for fear they will destroy me.
Just a thought of you and I am seized
by feelings that shatter me
and thrill me
burning my flesh as they rush through me
leaving me thirsting in their wake
thirst only to be quenched
with the knowledge of you
thoughts that twist and taunt me
until I am at the brink
trembling to my very core
intoxicated by this sweet torture
my body silently crying out for yours
begging for release
relief
begging you to come to me
and let me wrap myself around you
and lose myself to you
as you lose yourself in me.
Nothing else can untangle me
nothing less will satisfy this aching need
as I am lost to thoughts
so dangerous
so delicious.

The voice in this piece speaks with such determination and hunger. Thoughts can be dangerous..they can also be exciting. Good job.

Robin, this write is one that I feel many can relate to. Whether it be true or not, it is certain people that can truly unwrap another. Sometimes yes, thoughts can be dangerous, but they can be so much fun too. A very passionate and well written piece. Michael
