Let me take it all,

take it all in.

your body, lean

your slender, muscular arms

Your eyes dripping

brilliant golden brown.

honey chocolate skin

shimmering in the evening sun

Lips, full, delicious-looking and inviting

maybe they taste brown sugar, cinnamon, and apples

I’ve dreamt of your lips, your chest

so solid, and apparently some washboard abs

I don’t know any of this about you

but what I have just said—And this

Dreams of your arms holding me tight

In my dream you take me tonight

Gently, softly, cautiously

an understanding that neither needs mention

slowly-paced, in no rush except for us

wanting to find our own rhythm

come on baby, come with me, you say

there’s a place where you and I have never been

And whew did I feel my legs

wobble, as I almost fall

Oh, but what a fucking dream

I think, waking up drenched in sweat.

I remember so vividly

your touch, your caress, gentle. firm.

Your arms strong as our bodies slammed

together and you lifted me into the stratosphere

I feel you enter me again and again

your hands pushing me to the bed

make me beg

make me call out your name

whatever you do to me

do it in yours and my name

and as we come back down

as we touch down

terra firma

both of us hit the ground

cool carpet scrapes my knees

and your kiss drives me wild

We say goodnight

but I know you will be back

Night after night.

I say your name - Incubus
