Something's missing

In my heart I have searched for something to know,

just how deep a kiss can feel or the touch accompanied.

Into my dreams where love is the ghost,

and the look in her eyes intoxicates my being.

I can feel her breath on my neck to greet the day,

finding in this dream a reason to believe.

She touches my hand with such precession,

knowing that there is something we have as one.

Walking these nights alone just to realize,

how her soft skin tortures my every thought.

Unbuttoned by my hands to reveal my pleasure,

found in a whisper she leaves by the door.

In a flower that lives in the winter I see,

beauty beyond what my eyes understand.

Held so close to the flames in her heart,

she straddles my body and kisses me deep.

So many moons have I watched pass by,

to find what was always right here in her arms.

A reason to know what cannot be known,

in her heart I found what I was looking for, passion.
