Flood

You rain kisses

On me,

Until I am saturated

In you.

And drenched in desire

I dance

In your stormy eyes.

Your love floods

Through me,

Until I am covered

By you.

On hungry waves of lust

You seep

Uninvited into every thought

Your hands wash

Over me,

Until I am submerged

In you.

Beneath dark clouds of need

I'm pulled 

Helplessly away on your current.

But what, when the sun comes

Once more?

For a while like diamonds will

We shimmer?

And catch glimpses of rainbows

We'll seek

Treasures always just out of reach?

Or will wordlessly your waters recede 

From me,

Until parched and thirsty, 

I wilt.

So all that remains of the deluge 

Of you

Is the foul, brown, rotting silt.
