Desire untouched
The atmosphere... For the expected surprise.
The planning,
The longing,
It's a desperation,
Of sorts.
It's the contemplation of human fragility.
Gasping
Gasping for air in a room with windows open
Gasping for air, silently, simply for being in the same room with the forbidden.
Hands barely touching, tingling every spot that meets the warmth of another skin.
Building up a tingling on secret places that scream!... quietly, with desire.
The tingling becomes throbbing, between the tights tying up and suppressing the feeling until it turns into fire, a fire that consumes the insides and suffocates the heart with a smoke that finds its way up the throat and comes out the mouth in a barely audible...moan...
The eyes meet
The unspoken knowledge of it all is tangible.
It's almost pain.
It's almost unbearable.
A fate we all surrender.

Author's Note
The ache of wanting
The attempt to tame the most bestial and natural instinct.
The suffocation of desire.
A rare form of lust, denied by morality and duty.
The taboo of sex, still, to these days.

We all need someone. We are desperate for a connection and without it we fall apart. Well said.

Thank you!
I tried to convey an image of two people wanting each other so much it hurts but can't see it through for whatever reason, so they just build up this desire, this need, collecting any and every touch, until they can no longer resist. But I suppose it's true to us all, for we all want something or someone that we can't have at some point in our lives.
I don't know if I made myself clear enough, though I think that's one of the beauties of sharing your thoughts and have people relate and translate it in a way that's unique to them.

perhaps cultivate vs. tame those 'bestial and natural instincts' ?
it's like playing with lava in a tornado :) don't ya think?

Hey you!
I suppose you're right. If only that was the common thought, encouraging instead of hiding when all it actually does is heat up everything until it squirts everywhere. Some will run away red-faced, others will lick it all and go back for more. Either way, it always bursts.
