Shape yourself, and
Form to my body.
Melt into me.
Cover me in your warmth,
Every inch of me,
Every arch and crevice.
Solidify me.
Surround me.
Fill me.
Steal the breath
From my body, and
Energize me.
Run circles around me,
But let me catch up.
Gather me and
Store me away
For your eyes only.
Lengthen my lifespan
Naturally as it should be.
Enlighten me.
Brighten me.
Deprive me of passion, then
Drive it into me over again.
Make me tremble in your presence.
Stick to my side
At all times.
Help me forget what it
Feels like without you.
Capture my innocence and
Hold it in your core.
Be my only pleasure.
Be my only solace.
Sate my demons.
Show them who's boss.
Hide me from myself.
Let me find you.

Written for my boyfriend, and I apologize if it's too intimate.
