Oh, to be...

by Jeff Mason — Read all 207 poems by Jeff Mason

Monday, December 27, 2004

Oh, to be the breath inside you now;
that fills your lungs,
at this instant in time!

Oh, to be the blood
that courses through
your very veins!

Oh, to be the hand that
caresses your skin at night,
in midnight's dreams
of quenching
this damnable desolation!

Oh, to be the word...
whispered on your lips
in salacious wishes!

Oh, to be the face you see;
the name you scream,
in heightened throes
of passion's heat!

Oh, to be the me...
so desp'rately...
desired by thee.
