Just above the surface of my skin
Is where your touch 
Begins

Like a mist that crawls across overheated earth
In the coolness of the morning air
You feel the heat within me
Rise
Against your palms
Stirring early sounds

You smile
I sigh 
Fine hairs stand
Reaching 
For the magnetic pull of your hands
And sway
As you float over my flesh
My body is already impatient
And you have just begun

You prefer this game 
Bare
So here I sit
As if clothes were ever
Somehow a barrier 
Between you and I

Still
You undress me
With the familiar ease
That was our introduction
It is as distinct as the color of your eyes
A look that touched me 
From across a crowded room
Without permission
Pronounced
Each syllable of my name 
Without sound
Disrobed me
Without hesitation
Leaving me naked
Breathless
And yours

This is how you play me
As your fingers manipulate my aura
Till I am a glowing gold
Soft and pliable 
Begging for contact
As you pass
The deep rise and fall of my bosom 
With a slow hand

The firm, dark knot of my nipple reaches out to you
Offering more than nourishment
But satisfaction
Made envious by the movement of your tongue
Across the curve of your lip

A moan 
Betrays my threshold for denial
And
The sudden glide of my hips 
Reveals my body's purpose
Already slick and weeping

This is your intention
To tempt me beyond control
When you lower your face
The warmth of your deep voice
Issues the challenge 
The sound of which is
An ultimate lack of mercy on your part
"Remember Love
No touching"

Your chest rumbles low with amusement
As you look down between us 
You in my hand
My thumb circling 
The swollen
Rounded tip of your head
My fingers wrapped around your thickness
Pulling

I smile
Because once again
I am lost
And you my love
Have won
