Untitled

You say I took you,
but taking is more than this heat:
taking is more than the lush, sweet silk of your skin
under my work-roughened hands,
more than my lips searching your neck
for a sweet spot I might have missed.
It's more than the rhythm
of your hips
matching me thrust for thrust,
more than the musky scent of heat and
fire and love,
a sensual smoke we spark together,
it's more than your gasping against my
chest and your whispered urgings in the dark.
Taking you would mean
that every part of you were mine
and that pulsing mass of muscle
beneath your rose-tipped breasts,
implacable to me so far
would rest in the palm of my hand.
