An aching longing hunger,
Deep within is now a fire;
An all consuming raging flame,
An inferno of desire.

A longing there to touch you,
To feel your touch in turn;
The flaming fire grows slowly,
And there within me burns.

A hunger now to taste of you,
Your skin upon my lips;
Sliding sweetly past my tongue,
Beneath my fingertips.

As our bodies intertwine,
And my heart beats deep within;
The flame of passion you have quenched,
Will slowly build again.

This aching longing hunger,
Deep within is now a fire;
To taste you, feel you touching me,
An inferno of desire.
