Locket Love

locket love

your tender caress
leaves me
in urgent duress 

for I'm parched
so
thirsty for more

each time we part
my engine powers up
like a NASA space rocket
counting down 
till that orgasmic
blast off time

       four 
             three
                     two
                           one

                                 
                              shoot me off to 
                              the moon after you lift off


my heart
was tucked
deep inside
your blue
denim pocket

from the
moment
you gave me
my first gold 
locket with
your picture
inside

so you could
ride along 
being strung
on my gold chain
only to
be near my
heart box

even when we
are physically apart
your golden locket
is apart of me
now
reminding
me who
carries my
heart in their
blue jean pocket
