To Be Touched

Sensually 
    Two beings 
      Compete
 They swiftly enter
   A race of sorts
      To love
      At all costs
       He touches her
       and she him
       Slowly they thrust
        In and out 
         He retrieves her 
          Treasure
           Like a pirate
           in search of gold
              But each touch
               Each rock
                Is sentimental
                as their bodies 
                 become one
                 Honestly their's
                 no place she'd rather be
                   Their hearts swollen
                    Bodies dripping with sweat
                     Not from any lustful 
                      Quick fix
                     But from an out of this world body experience
                         To make love.
                          Not to just acheive pleasure 
                            Anyone can have sex
                             But to be touched like this
                             as if at any moment you might break
                               To be thrust into like this
                                knowing he feels the same way
                                   To be loved like this
                                      The girl tastes salt water tears
                                           Rolling down her cheeks
                                             She is in heaven
