Senses of Time

Do I forget or remember your delectable taste To let go of this passion would seem such a waste The lightness of being, the salt of your skin Rampant desire, the fire within Do I forget or remember your burning hot touch The memory of kisses that indulged me so much The warmth of your body, smoothness of skin The absence of contact, where do I begin? Do I forget or remember your soft, sultry voice My mind can let go, in my heart there???s no choice Your words are like honey in the requiem of time Me in the autumn and you in your prime Do I forget or remember your fragrance, your scent The words that are whispered do not need consent Indelible your essence, your maleness, such rapture Your hunt a success, I lay fallen, your capture Do I forget or remember your body, your presence Your heart and your soul, your tantalizing essence The curve of your neck, your incredible face The delirium of obsession, this map you can???t trace The boundaries a dilemma, the walls are in place The fabric of time, the texture of space To hope or regret of what value is this Existence is now, shoot straight and don???t miss

I was going to give this a 2 but then the last line moved everything up 4 notches.

Yep that last line is a killer. Belies everything that goes before it and is good for that reason.
