I Needed Words
Words,
I needed words.
You kissed me passionately, fervently, all consumingly
As though I were rain and you were a drought.
I felt needed, desired, sexy...
for a minute, maybe two
Until I remembered
Words?
When you pulled down my panties I felt vulnerable, bare, flawed...
Like an accused awaiting her sentence.
Words,
I needed words.
I couldn't speak, couldn't even whisper - Stop.
Because my body was screaming, yes finally!
But my mind was hesitant, silent, waiting...
For Words,
I needed words.
I needed to hear
You Are Beautiful.
I needed to hear
I Like You.
I needed to hear
Are you Sure?
But in the end, the only words muttered were the unspoken ones, coming from my body -
My forsaking body, saying Yes when I should have said No
All we needed were words.
I needed words.
