You pushed me up against a wall, stating your demands.
Compliance was the only answer allowed
Your hands bruising my delicate skin
I eagerly await you
Your need evident in your voice, your actions are punishment
Chastisement for pushing you over the edge
I smile further, taunting you
Feigning boredom which hides my true nature.
I want you, like this
Control lost, wild, reckless.
My shirt is ripped open, the tearing of seam driving you further
Feasting on the body that is yours
Plaintive cries beckon for gentleness
Yet actions implore more of the unrestrained strength.
Too many barriers for you, too many obstacles
My clothing are yanked off, my breasts exposed to your hungry mouth
Savage ravishing flames my body
You press my back against the wall, grinding yourself into me
Forcing my legs wider, letting go of my hands and slipping them under my bottom
Your hold on me is secure
“Damn you!”  I scream.
The pressure is exquisite
The quivering, the lines of contention blurred
Nothing matter after that, just the glory of his invasion
Fevered passion, fierce sensations melting me over you
Hard powerful thrusts making me senseless, gasping for air
An obsessed man, you move out of me and turn me around.
The cold wall against me.
The roughness of you, moving me to your pleasing.
Before I can complain, you are deep inside me
Slowly you pull out, pausing at the limit of your withdrawal
I’m frantic, panting, begging, swinging back as much as possible
You torture me with your hard-driving thrusts
Relishing in my wild cries
Pure domination over me
I’m lost, ruled by the intoxicating rapture
Keeping me in this realm, we reach climax
Spent, mindless,
I can not even consider breathing
Caressing my bottom, you whisper in my ear
“My dear, we are far from finished.”
A silent smile crosses my face
What other things await me in your touch?

Capture for me, this moment in time
Capture it and make it mine
Give me the knowledge I’ll need to cross over
To that realm of wonder
A place joyously serene
A space without bounds that would hinder my being
Adorn me with wings perfectly sized
Watch as I take flight on the energy you provide
In that moment as I ascend to the heaven’s above
Help me make sense of what you have shown me.
It was heated, hurried at first,
Then the swift fire changed to an ember as our kisses adjust
The pressure transforms and soon we are savoring, tasting, and relishing in each other.

My spirit wild, and untamed.
I’m defiant and rebellious, a feral fire that will burn you if you get too close.
Push at you and force you to rethink everything
But you’re not scared of me; you’re not frightened by the flame.
You see what lies beneath, the gentleness, the delicate part of me.
My tummy turned a flip, and I smiled, giving myself away.
Your hot breath, tickled the skin on my neck.
You kiss me, snaking your tongue around my lips and into my mouth.
My breath stuck in my throat, and my knees weak. Damn, you can kiss!
Your hands kept wandering, searching, prolonging.
You push me pass limits and yet raise me higher to something unnamed.
You did it gently, smoothly, sensuously.
I bite my lip waiting; what you would do, what you would say.
The longing intensified.
You were gentle and thorough, as you showed me pleasure
Slow, unhurried, languid sensations as you took your fill of my body
It’s filling me, initiating me into a side I have never touched.
I loved it, yearned for it, and craved it.
My breath hitches, you’re getting ready.  Then I felt the slight tugging,
You bent down, licking on a nipple,
Sucking it and then letting it scrape through your teeth
There was no turning back for me.
No shyness, no coyness.
This was pure, uninhibited, and undiluted.
This was heat; raw and beckoning.
I bit my lip as the slight pain coursed through my body.
I enjoyed your moan in my ear as you nibbled on my neck.
You were the one in charge, and I wanted it and you in a way I still can’t describe.

I bite my lip harder as a tremble runs down my spine.
There was that feeling again, that touching and sucking, that….that…god that heaven.
I can see the fire in your eyes.
Gripping on to you tightly, you move me tenderly
Insuring I’m not scared in anyway
I can’t hold back and let emotion lead me
As I take in the strange and new feeling of surrender.
Fierce sensations melting me under you
The slow build swallows me alive as I’m at the edge
I’m lost, ruled by the intoxicating rapture
Keeping me in this realm, I reach that unknown euphoria
Spent, mindless, I can not even consider breathing

I calm and yet as time passed and I am not ready to leave your presence,
Your hands slowly caressed me again and I felt the heat of your body behind me this time.
I knew what you wanted. What you needed.
A silent smile crosses my face
But I hold on to my defenses.

Easy, I tell myself, as I say goodnight to you once again.
Drifting to sleep, the heat inside me is burning.
What other things await me in you?
You started the fire within me;
Your mind has me intrigued as well as they aura of the man.
Yet as the tingles and shivers begin to fade
I close my eyes and wonder.

I glanced across the room periodically while I was deep into some of my papers. You brought work with you this weekend as well and worked in the office. Taking a break, I rub my strained eyes and continue watching you. Things between us are so strange. We’ve agreed to things I’m not sure you even wanted, and now can’t remember why initially it was settled to be that way. Yet there seems to be something that always pulls at me about you; you’re still with me.

Something inside my heart and mind burns for you. The intensity of it is sometimes too much to bear. I keep to myself about the other half of my life, and you tell me everything about yours. Somehow though, you know more about me than sometimes I even care to know. And a part of me feels I don’t know you at all.

You’re demeanor is completely unlike I’ve ever expected. Drifting through the house are the sounds of Howie Day. Appropriate it seems, the consistent strumming of his guitar speaking deep inside me as I continue watching you. Trying to figure out the mystery of you, not so much how to get in but how to be at least closer than I am now.

You look up at me and smile, and that shiver courses through me. That chemistry between us is a small spark that manages to burn me up.

Over the time we’ve been together. You took time to know me thoroughly when I thought no man truly cared. Every single time you touch the outside of me, something inside me stirs seems to reveal a secret I had locked away. I can feel from the far distance the faint trace of your hands moving over my body. The words you speak to me softly as you slowly rouse me to excitement in your arms; the way your body feels entering mine as I plead for you. From this distance the memories come alive by just looking into your eyes; I can feel us moving together in passion.

You stand and walk towards me extending out your hand. A hand I’ve held on to when afraid, when happy, when needing support. A hand that has holds strength, tenderness and most importantly; trust. Resting my hand in yours, immediately our lips fuse together. Heated, wanting, needing, hurried at first, then the swift fire changes to an ember as our kisses adjust to what we really need and want.  The pressure transforms and soon we are savoring, tasting, and relishing in each others flavor.

Leaning back on the table, the music drifting through the house, I know the tone of our coupling this time is different, special. Closing my eyes, I sigh as your hands caress my back, your lips kissing my neck, your touches reaching down my body, down my thighs, over my hips to ever so gently remove my panties to slide into my body. It isn’t frenzied or hurried. Slow and sensual exploration greets us both as we find the parts we know guarantees pleasure. This time though our collision together is a slow melding instead of a violent explosion.

That euphoria I can only feel in your arms wipes the doubt away. The uncertainty of our relationship, the lingering distrust I hold due to fear of being hurt disappears.  The slight discomfort of your body sliding into mine brings reality and truth to the forefront. You move inside me not seeking a rhythm for yourself but trying to find one for the both of us to follow. You lead me in our ecstasy and I can only follow.

Gripping on to you tightly, you move me tenderly with your thrusts. I bite my lip as my heart beats things I can’t speak, I’m afraid to speak. Scared of truly letting you see the last part of me, a piece I’ve never revealed before. You kiss my lips softly, asking me to let go. You stare into my eyes and ask me to let my wall down, to let you in.  I keep biting my lip holding on to the last thread. It’s the last barrier inside of me, the one that has always remained strong through every heartbreak, every pain. The barrier that formed when I promised myself I would never let anyone that close to me. It is the barrier that protects and shelters inside a fragile and delicate heart.

Gently sucking on my bottom lip, you coax me to relax as you soothe the mark my teeth left. Leaning forward you move deeper, whispering in my ear how much you care about me. The foundation of the barrier is crumbling as I feel you collide against it with your gentleness.  Unable to keep the secret from you, I quietly let the tears fall down my face and whisper my love for you in your ear. Why now am I trusting you with all of me but couldn’t before? I don’t know.  You whisper back as that you’ve always known and continue moving inside me.

As you finally feel me surrender to you, all my walls destroyed, you tighten your grip on my body and your lips take mine again. I can’t hold back and let emotion lead me as I take in the strange and new feeling of surrender. The slow build swallows me alive as I’m at the edge and completely let go. Following my lead, you go after me over the precipice as I lock my arms around you.

Who knows how much time and moment has passed. Pulling back away from me, we stare at each other breathless, beads of sweat covering our bodies. You leave gentle kisses on my lips and continue staring at me.

I am completely speechless as I realize that somewhere along those moments in your arms; something broke in me and changed in you.
