Wrapped In the Same Skin

I want to slide into you,
Not between the stickiness of sheets,
But between the spaces of your synapses.

I want to taste your saliva on my lips, 
Not from the wetness of your tongue,
But from the passage of your words.

I want to encompass you,
Not between the thickness of my thighs,
But between the limits of my life.

I want to indulge myself in your scent,
Not from the potency of your perfume,
But from the familiarity of your presence.

Fragment by fragment, 
I will emerge myself in You,
Until I feel that we are wrapped in the same skin.
