Knowing the Secret of You

I inhale, my chest full of you, and relax
into knowing the secret of you.

My lips are kissed by your soul
and my want, embraced by your thighs.
I see your colours, and taste 
the reason that you are.

You smell of memories as I nestle 
into your womb and turn back 
the clock to learn you all over 
again.

And the gossamer threads of your hair keep
me safely wrapped about your bosom
while I suckle at the honey dew 
that blankets your skin. 

You share all that you are, and more than 
your sum with me. You are my orchestra 
of sound and my eyes for seeing.

You write my story day and night.
But, most of all, you never let me 
caress empty pockets of time 
alone.
