I breathe you in

I breathe you in
The scent of lust 
The sense of longing 
Of building trust

I breathe you in
Deep in my lungs
The softest whisper
Of lovers tongues 

I breathe you in
You're part of me
The fuel I need
To live life free

I breathe you in 
You are my world 
Ingrained in me
As a tree is burled
