I burn for you
Whenever it is hot
Or I imagine a man’s hands on my body
I burn for you
Your smooth brown skin
Taut over your exquisite form
Desire for you overcomes me
All the smiles in the world
Would never replace that smile
You have for me
There is no brightness
That casts the shadows away
Like your striking spirit
Your beautiful soul
Like the moon wrapping itself around me
Late into the night
My love for you is more abiding
More true than the love of any woman
For her man
You are the reason for the movement of the planets
Why my heart beats
And feels its way
In this world
You are the crisp wind of a rainy morning
The burning of a deep southern sun
What is right
And has meaning in life
You are the perfection
Of man
The beauty of youth
Tight
Full of truth
A bare heart
Just for me
