I Want

I wanted to taste you at first
like a fine wine, feeling
your sweetness
swirl around my mouth.

I wanted to take you
hard
like a shot of whiskey
working its way down my throat.

I wanted you to come
inside my gate
like a traveller weary from the road
looking for shelter and warmth.

I wanted to say something
like a poet, but then I thought words can't describe
what I want from you.
