I Need You

I've got your gentle voice in my head

I am finely tuned to you still

all my senses hungry - insatiable

starving for your loving words

more of your gentle laughter

smiles that resonate inside and out

zinging hot sensation through my veins

like a vampire, I want to devour you

suck your goodness into my depths

replenish my soul with your essence.
