i want you to come to me and press against my ceiling and i want to 
press against yours and i want your mouth on me and exploring and 
finding me and filling me in all the hollows and all the gaps and wants 
and your hands follow behind and taking up all my spaces and i want you 
hungry and i want you demanding and i want you accepting and i want you 
soft.  i want to feel your edges and the between velvet and rigid and 
the straight lines and the curves, and i want to cup you and taste you 
and i want you to insist.  and i want you to take and i want to hear you
 breathe and feel you expand and retract and i want to know your eyelids
 and your teeth with my tongue and i want your droplets one two three on
 me from above and i want to bury myself in your icewater hair and to 
twist our hands together in a body kiss and i want your massive and i 
want your thighs on mine and want you slow and kind.  and i want to run 
myself over the map of you and then tangle in your fine and tangle in 
the body of your mind and i want to find your empty and i want you to 
find my empty and i want us to go away.  i want you next to me.  in me. 
on me. i want to go places with you i have never been and i want you to 
go places with me you have never been and i want your wet heat and your 
breeze.  i want your imagination and your wonder and your skin against 
mine and you i want you to see my desire for you and my plain plaintive 
want of you.  i want you to come to me. soon.  again.  and soon. 
i want this every day and i want this today.
