Temptation's Eyes  {w. JohnFeddeler}

Flames flicker in your tousled hair  
when you walk on the beach  
sunlight boldly kisses your lotioned skin  
and you smile your Ipanema smile –  
    I am tempted  
 
Your eyes hide behind dark lenses  
do you see me watching you?  
take my hand  
pull me from my dream  
you’re a wicked sensation  
you are temptation  
    and I am tempted…  
 
-I feel the warmth  
of your stare on my cheek.  
 
I look up and steal  
back to your stare.  
 
You barely see me. It  
is only desire that  
you are registering.  
 
-Actual and imagined.  
 
Turning my gaze openly  
to you, you scan my  
face for evidence of desire.  
 
My longing for you is less  
raw than yours for me. Your  
eyes never desert me;  
 
You take my hand in yours  
I feel the supple strength  
the firm possessive reassurance  
of your hand in mine.  
 
..Taking me into seclusion.
