Melt

Enflamed
your eyes contain
the heat of the sun
singularly focused
determined
to burn through my shell
see past my cover
expose the raw of inner me
that longs so desperately
for you

you make me melt

melt
I can't help it
can't deny it
you stand before me and I
try to ignore you
try to pretend I can't
feel your passion
don't understand sexual hunger
frontin' like I am not
tuned in and
turned out by
the simple promise
of what we
can accomplish
can have
can feel

I have already felt
the heat of you
lingered near
savoring the wonderful warmth
of you
but your eyes
radiate a lustful sizzle
an unquenchable, insatiable need
matched only by my
secret desire
and you linger on my mind
for days at a time
wondering if I can ever let you
touch me and
make me melt

The 4th Kiss

That 1st kiss
so light and fresh
barely there, I almost missed it
never knew a boy's lips
could be so soft, so gentle

The 2nd kiss
awoke something in me,
snapped me out of
playful reverie
brought reality clearly into focus
paying more attention to the
here and now

The 3rd kiss
made me melt
my knees literally buckled
my head swooned, then
time stopped
My ears started ringing,
blocking out all sound
but the pounding of my heart

The 4th kiss
sealed the deal
making me completely yours
I woulda done anything you said
woulda followed you anywhere
in that moment
opening the gates and
freeing all of me
at your mere request

Thankfully,
you had no idea
of the power of
that 4th kiss
