There are many, many ways in
which I love you, As many ways as there are me's and you's: Some pure, some not so pure, some hard above you, Some soft and sweet below, some--well, you choose! We're animal and human and divine All wrapped in one confused and messed-up ball. I think sometimes with me it would be fine If God would just decide to chuck it all. But see the varied avenues of pleasure Our multi-layered beings can enjoy! Your flesh and heart equally I treasure With all the pent-up anguish of a boy. I long for both your body and your face; I need both warmth and heat in your embrace. Copyright by Nicholas Gordon. Free for personal or non-commercial use. Audio and Video Music: |
