I Know You
After years of intimacy and travels I know you
like the back of my hand. Your face like an angel,
your lips like a ripe peach. Cat’s eyes like fangs
that mesmerize me.
Oh yes I know you
I have touched all parts of your body like a blind
man reading a Braille book. From your exquisite feet
to the heavenly areas in between where I spent
hours savoring the essence you provided.
Oh yes I know you
Yes I know your body but you’re a mystery to me when
It concerns your thoughts and feelings. I’ve often
wondered where you go when you’re asleep. Is it some
secret place where I’m not invited?
I think I know you
And when you stare at the moon when I’m not there,
are you remembering me or someone one else?
I sometimes wonder whether you really love me when
at night I hear you moaning
Guess I’m jealous or perhaps I don’t really know you.
