Infatuation....(Teach me...)

By A Velvet Tongue

Drown me in your eyes of lavender
for being shackled here
could never feel helpless and wrong
only forever, knows these bounds

Save me with your self fufilling prophecies
robes of white I shall caress
upon my weary cheek
Satiated, to graze in your evergreen meadow

Buy me, with your empty pockets
for what price tag would fit
upon such an exquisite indulgence
a rarity of some sort I cannot name

Dress me, in the pale beauty of nakedness
peel away each layer of imperfection
until all that remains
is a vessell worthy of adoration

Lock me, away in your dungeon
cages and chains cold upon my flesh
the binds that will bruise and force
connecting our chakras by cords of golden

Bury me, in sheets of black satin
so I may bask in the contrast of flesh on lust
heated desire upon cold indulgences
our bodies coiling in libido

Taste me, let me linger upon your pallette
a tarry of honey mixed with rare spices
a buffett of erotic temptations
seasoned to redemption within your hunger

Tempt me, keep me lost at bay
so close, swirling within an escaping breath
the heat dancing upon the pads of my fingers
as I beg to touch a mere of your flesh

Lie to me, if but only in this moment
no measure of harm when asked so politely
cradle me in your emotional tide
I want to watch your lips curve as you speak

Teach me, your terms of endearment
for sleep cannot be found at any turn
Pile upon my back these books of torment
that can breed a scholar from a liason

There is no escaping the inevitable
There is no plea of reprieve
There is no wish for tommorrow
I am utterly...
