I said

“Let me take you

to a place where

angels fear to tread,

but your deepest desires

can be realised”

She said

“I’m telling you

That I need it.

That I need you

And this raw hunger 

Is all engulfing

as destiny spins around me

With each press of your lips

unravelling my silken core

with the heat

of your bonfire kisses”

Her plea was

Own me,

Touch me

Ruin my pretty visage

Defile my purity

under moonlit skies.

Touched by her longing

I heard her say

“I see you

the beauty of your heart

the grace of your soul

your gentle kindness

your towering strength

The way of wisdom

simply truths from deep inside

I feel seen by you too

and these simple words

only left to say

Thank you

for seeing me”
