i envy the woman whose lips

i envy the woman whose lips
your ample mouth has gently kissed
whose very look enslaves your soul
i ponder yet all i have missed

i envy her still whose arms
press you to her breasts so tenderly
who shares your secret hopes and dreams
and keeps your fire burning steadily

i envy the woman whose bed
your long lean body slumbers in
forgive my heart's dear love desires
that which others consider a sin

i envy the woman i don't even know
who possesses what i can only desire
to be empowered by someone so fine
i envy her body-her soul on fire

your introspective pen explores the complex emotions of envy and longing. It delves into your yearning for the affections and connections that another woman seemingly possesses. your ink touches on the themes of intimacy, passion, and the longing for a deep connection with someone. you captures the bittersweet and sometimes painful nature of unrequited desires and unattainable connections. Nicely done.
