Electrify Me Baby

When we met everything was on fire
Electricity bleed through our veins
Our bodies rushed with desire 
My body could not restrain
Your silky brown hair or your deep blue eyes 
I’d tell you to stop but 
I couldn’t resist the way our bodies intertwined 
You melted into me, and I into you
Each time better than the last
Finishing me off way too soon
I couldn’t get enough 
Truthfully you felt better than the feelings I couldn’t shake
You made me believe in myself 
For longer than I could take
I appreciate the way you made me feel 
You made me feel alive 
Even though no feelings between us were real
You would give me your body,  but you deprived me of your soul
The person I lie next to, I do not know
However I give credit where it’s due 
You don’t know me and I don’t know you 
So electrify me baby, melt into me 
Let this feeling be 
No questions, no strings 
Just you and just me 
Two strangers becoming one

Strangers in the night, electrifying, lovers at first sight so tantalizing when we make love, nothing else matters but you...Lovely write Mary...love the sincerity...
