For the first time I caught something special in his eyes.  A childlike 
twinkle.  Something I couldn't let down.  I became encaptured by his 
face and the expressions that ran across every few moments.  He held my
hand and tried to persuade me to leave with him.  And as he pulled me 
closer and closer, I gently began to transcend from myself.  The nearer
our bodies were, the farther I became from my own self.  And as he held
onto me, my soul wrapped itself around him.  His mouth touched mine
and I devoured it hungerly.  I faded into him.  He drew up from my 
empty well a single drop of water.  And when my eyes opend it came out
in the form of a tear.  Thirsty.  My eyes were watery with delirium.  I
was fastened to a touch that made my insides melt.  The night bathed us
in its warmth and my appetite was too strong to be fulfilled.  Each kiss
only deepened the growling hole.  And all I could do is to keep slipping
into it.
