Shaken Beyond Words

Shaken Beyond Words

Can you grasp the need I have
One that overtakes me each day
Yet you remain just out of reach
Never quite touching
When I want to feel you pressed 
tightly against me in passion
Teasing my being so gently
Provoking ecstasy beyond words
My soul cries out to yours
My essence utters inarticulate 
sounds as it cries out 
Needing, an urgent want
the anticipation overpowering 
Leaving me shakened beyond words

An intense and beautiful fantasy, but it seems only to be a fantasy. Smooth flow and well written lines. Your first line grabs the readers attention and each line increases the tension until the final release of being left shaken. Well done.
