The Need Within

Lips that are magnetic,

A grip that's firm and wanting,

Skin, smooth—

A need to touch every inch of skin.

A desperate need to be within,

To cling, to hold, to melt,

The undeniable ecstasy to be felt.

The harmonious sounds,

In the form of whimpers and gasps,

For air, shared and stolen,

Until the moment of release,

When bodies are at peace,

And seeking sweet slumber.

The want, the need,

To stay next to each other,

And be there for one another.
