the shadow of you dances in the corners of my mind.
twisting and turning its way to the parts of my memory I rather not re-visit.
all the nights together.
all the love that quietly grew between us.
all the passion that we set ablaze like the morning sun every time we touched.
we had something that burned like a thousand flames….
but it took only one sharp breath to blow out.
the shadow of you taunts me with teasing hands.
fulfilling every fantasy in my head while I wished so badly that they would come to life.
I close my eyes and can almost feel
your touch…
your lips…
your teeth…
the burning in my cheeks is almost as bad as the pulsing between my legs.
how I crave you so badly on nights I know I cannot have you.
but,
the shadow of you is always here to keep me company.
