Instinctive Memories

Instinctive Memories

My body remembers
It twitches, jerks
Muscles stretch, and clench

This feeling begins in my very soul
The heat builds, winding its hot tentacles throughout my insides
My belly burns, my legs stretch
My arms clench and ache

Memories fill my very being
Thoughts of caresses, tenderness, long ago love
The feel of your breath on my neck, your arms embracing me
The memory of your tender kisses, your soft touch, the warmth of your body so close to me

Memories my mind tries to forget
But my body cannot
My body , my very soul yearns for your touch
Your embrace, your warmth

The heat builds, muscles begin to tremble
Hot tendrils of need swirl within me
Reaching, grasping , demanding

This feeling builds upon itself,
Muscles begin to tremble
My mind cries out “No! Do not remember”
My body will not listen
Every inch of my very being rebels against my mind

My soul cries out for you
For your touch, your caress, your love
I sigh and give in
I blindly reach for you

My fingers grasp only air
You are not there, where I need you to be
I cry out in desperation, where are you?
My mind jolts, my heart skips a beat
I look desperately for you
I cannot find you
You are no where to be found

I collapse against the sheets
My body is damp with perspiration
I fight to catch my breath
Gasping for air, I cannot breath
You are gone, lost to me
Slowly my mind begins to clear the fog
My surroundings begin to become clear

I am in my bed
The sheets tangled about me
The darkness envelopes me
It was only a dream
