One Touch

Passion sparked by touch

————

You touch me and

Like a match to a

Wick, I am alive with

Flames melting my

Body like candle wax,

Heating my desire

Until everything is

Not enough, the sky

Needs more stars,

The moon greater

Glow, a banquet for

Twenty feeds not

This rising hunger,

Oceans unsalted

Could not quench

My thirst for you,

Two million

Universes cannot

Contain my love,

My dearest can you

Even imagine beyond

One touch...
