Desire

2.21.2013

By Mercedes ChavezPublished about a year ago 1 min read

The warmth coming from your skin

Always leaves me feeling right

Lord, forgive me for this thoughtful sin

But these are feelings I cannot fight

The quickened pulse of hearts desire

Leaves me feeling as if I am floating on air

When your breath touches my skin, it feels like fire

This is far too much to bear

Oh, how I desperately crave your touch

Until the point it makes me incredibly weak

Maybe these thoughts are a bit much

But you are all that my body seeks

You exist in my every waking moment

Such an insatiable desire

A love that burns like a wildfire

Mercedes Chavez

Come with me, lets go on an adventure together, see the world through my eyes, let me paint a picture with my words, I promise you will be able to feel what I felt the first time I experienced it. Love, sadness and everything in between.
