Discovering Desire
©1999 by Marsailli

I need
to stroke your hair,
inhale the scent of you,
to kiss your soft, red lips, and hear
you sigh.

I long
to touch your cool,
white skin.  To feel the curves
of your body on mine.  My heart's
desire.

Do you
know how much I
love to see you smile, and
how the sound of your laughter, makes
me feel?

I know
this can't be wrong,
the love I have for you.
No-one else ever made me feel
like this.
