Drunk on a Wine I Have Never Tasted
We gave each other so many dreams
We thought it was reality
So real
Meeting in the dark
Touching for the first time
Knowing instinctively how to elicit a passionate response
When I padded through your kitchen
Naked and barefoot
Licking strawberry juice from your chin
Loving under an olive tree
I can see the sand beneath
I remember the exact hue of the sky that day
But the color of your eyes
The way you taste
A mystery
I become intoxicated by you
Drunk on a wine I have never tasted
Locked away in a cask
Across the ocean
Faceless, nameless
my love
