Love Poem: What Lies Beneath Your Skin

What Lies Beneath Your Skin

What Lies Beneath Your Skin

What lies beneath your skin
That makes me want to 
Touch your this, feel your that?
What magnet draws me in
Compelling me to 
Launch my sensual attack?

When hands are not enough
I become an anaconda
Entwined around you
Sometimes gentle, sometimes rough
That’s what it takes
For my love to surround you

A mystery forever unsolved
Taking me so far beneath
That I reach into your soul 
Alchemy must be involved
That transforms you into
Shining, gleaming gold

But now I wait for
My glowing - my melting
Oh - please - let it begin 
I unlock my door
So you can slip inside to find
What lies beneath my skin
