Melted Nets

Steam rises, inhibitions fall
unexpected heat has carried me to here
and I feel you near
by the beat of your heart
and the gasp of your breathe

I only ask one thing of this moment
of ecstatic trepidation
Hold Me?
With your heart...
Not just your hands.

I want to luxuriate in your heat
that sizzles the steam
and burns away my safety net
Which never happened
till now

And as I give all to you with trembling hands and shaking heart
the stake is high.

But I will gamble on love.
Maybe because its summer
Maybe because of your smile
But really because of your eyes
That looked into my soul.

And that seduced me before
you ever did.
