you kiss me deeply
as if you were thirsty
and I was
a long cool draught of water
you push me to the limits
of sensation
as if to reassure yourself
that you’re alive
you make love to me
as if its the last thing
you will ever do
or want to do
you hold me
as if
you don’t know how to let go
you caress my skin
as if
it was the smoothest silk
or the softest satin
you walk away
as if
you dont want to go
but cannot stay
