Love is Killing Me!

I wish you wouldn't.

It doesn't become you.

Taunting, teasing, pleading.

I've given in the hour

all I have to give

Isn't it enough?

Please, maybe later

give me some reprieve.

Let me catch my breath

just a little rest.

Your breath hovers

about my neck.

soft kisses

nudging for response.

Leaning into me

pressing.

Awaking me for more.

So this is love?

Perpetual want

An endless seeking.

An empty cup

in want of filling.

O.K. - get your ball,

I'll take you for a walk!
