Okay #DavidsMonthOfMusic peeps

So far there's never been a challenge in November but as the hashtag has grown I didn't want to not have anything this month. So I've come up with something a bit different...

As always I hope you have fun and find/rediscover music you love!
i need
simply need
to discover the taste
of your arousal

i could take the night
to its very brink
never taking my mouth
from your fervour

another scene
from another reverie
but it's always you

it's always
your rapture

pen me
something

a verse replete
with visceral truth

for my eyes only
for my heart only

something secret
something sacred

a thing of grace
and gravity

if i make you feel anything
make me feel everything

please
make it so all i think of
is all you dream

just as gravity
has its law

your allure
is as irrefutable to me

pulled

drawn

powerless
against the undeniable force

matter to matter

hearts to hearts

the proximity of particles

the closeness of you

we kick our way through
a bed of leaves
like children

the day was as idyllic as I had believed

your soul as warm as I had dreamed

and as the golden sun falls
into the whisper and hush of autumn

the day is not over

and your lips are as soft as I dared hope

your
lips
and tongue form
the sentiment

our surreptitious
language
that only knows
sincerity

my touch
could never lie
to your skin

and yes
our words bind us deliciously
to one intent

but in the silence
between the softer sighs
our love
screams loudest

between sunrise
and sunset

every subliminal heartbeat

every instinctive breath

thoughts of you
just as frequent

always close

and then i dream
only dreams
that you imbue

the fact i can even consider
we have a history

fills me
with joy

context
in canon

shared

entwined

i love
that there's an us

that you

curious
cartographer

mapping
arcane #geography

intrepid
and tentative

eager
and patient

at each contour

every rise and every fall
taking into account
breath
and ardour

the quill trembles as i consider
traversing every border

anywhere i plant an X
i could call home

darling

how you beguile me
with such ease
and grace

leaving me
once more

bewitched

inspired

spent

ruins again
of the latest conflagration

ghosts
of every poet i used to be

my dearest
devastating muse

draw me in
again
and again

my bones
think you're #famous

my epidermis
your biggest fan

verses tremble
on the cusp of arcadia

fine hairs
in standing ovation

a zephyr of breath
fireflies in the dark

oh
oh

muscles tingle
at conjured memory

sign your name
where my pulse quickens
