The Need

I woke up late last night
Too hot, restless, tossing blankets
Damp with a desire I knew wouldn’t be satisfied
Craving a touch I knew would not be felt
I needed you like I need food, remembering your taste
Needed you like I need air, remembering your scent
Turning on my back, I felt my nipples rise to you
Reaching to feel the breath, the bristle of your beard
The caress of your tongue as you teased me, out of reach
The brush of your thigh, as you mount me, too long gone
The thrill of the plunge, as you took higher and higher
My hips move with the want but you aren’t there
I drip with the readiness but you are nowhere to be found
This lonesome bed is empty and so am I, alone and empty
I sigh….and go back to sleep…hoping to dream
Because that’s what I have left of you…a dream
Late in the night

Sue, I read this earlier tonight and couldn't
find the nerve to comment. I got so worked up with the thought of you there and the need unfilled. I took a nap, woke up in a sweat and ran right back here to say, Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi!!!! Bill

Hi Sue,
Never let it be said that I do not give credit where it is due.
You have got one fantasic memory!
Look on the bright side at least you don't need to sleep on the damp patch.
You can't beat a good old Georgia Peach.

Morchuis.
