Open the Floodgates

Locked up in stares
Silence is the teacher
Spread in bed
Time should forgive us 

You caress my troubles 
An invitation to my pleasures 
You awaken my senses 
Despite my inner seizures  

Your thrusts pound on the exterior
Body gestures for improvement
Attentive but less spoken 
You deliver to my inner 

My sounds, your melody
Your touch, my symphony 
Hands where they should be 
Lips need not speak 

Time has forgiven us
You've unleashed the beast
