danger zone

wrap your smile 
around 
my body
coat my lips 
with your 
wanting
caress my name 
with your need

but 
don't 
offer me 
the part of you 
I 
can't 
have
(don't you dare!)

you push me close 
to the edge 
that danger zone 
we can't enter

you stumble backwards 
tripping,
falling
with me in your arms
when you 
by chance,
crack open your eyes
and peep over my shoulder 
and stare into the abyss
(they call it love baby)

close your eyes 
again,
and whisper your need.
Want me 
to want you.
Need to be needed

but don't give me 
what I can't have.
don't 
dangle in front of me
the part of you 
I 
can't 
have.
