Desire

Corrupt me
Set your fiery lips on my skin
Brand me with your desire
Take me
Make me yours
Slip silky, silent, slithering snakeskin fingers
Along my barely bare breasts
Overcome my weakness with your will
Nearer, nibbling on my neck
Capture me with hunter’s arms
Pierce my innocence
With your sweetly seductive
Cleverly cunning kiss.
