Loving With Soul

Drunk on emotions

Drunk on spirits

Drunk on wine

Drinking my fill

Before I feel your body

over mine

:

All of them

:

I left my mind behind

I checked my soul at the door

I allowed my body to rule

:

Except for him

:

I let my guard down

I softened my armor

I stayed sober

:

I was comfortable each time I stayed with him

I didn't need to be inebriated

:

The sex didn’t make me leave my body

I was ever present

Even in the moments of awkwardness

where I felt I had to be a little more cautious

:

I was awake

I was alive

I was living in love

:

I was loving with my soul

I was sober
