In the Moment

I saw you for only an instant
But an instant was all I would need

I know you inside and out
How you feel, how you sound, how you taste
The warmth of your touch gets under my skin
And any control in my thoughts is erased
I reach out for you and you find me
My senses are already on fire
The heat from your breath is upon my cheek
So I push forth and give in to desire

We exchange no words between us
But we know exactly what to say
My movements flow in tandem with yours
Neither one of us requesting parlay
I press in to you but you press back harder
And just for a moment we hold
You breathe me in and I lose myself
And I do just what I am told

My hands find your waist and I move
Your voice shudders as I move in
My back is afire as you respond in kind
But with all the heat I am lost in my sin
Sweet sweat
Your sigh in my ear
I am lost in a collage of senses
Your body
Your face
Your pulsing heart beat
I am stripped of all my defenses

Before we break you hold me close
You clutch me like your most prized possession
Your last kiss is sweet and tender
And we part ways without even a question
You’ll never know the effect you’ve had on me
The fire, the force, the compassion
That for one moment in time you were mine
And I was a slave to you lost in my passion

In an instant there we were and no one was wiser
The thought gone as soon as it came
I can only hope you will return to me some day
And again we become lost in the flame
