I long to wear you like a satin or velvet glove,
to run your hands across my skin, yearning for your love,
feel you play my body like a harpist on his strings,
lightly touching my flesh with the brush of angel wings.

I long to wear you like a sparkling golden band,
always look upon you like a jewel on my hand,
see the star-light in your eyes as you look up to me
and know that you are exactly where you long to be.

I long to wear you like honeyed sunlight in my hair,
to feel your touch upon me, your kisses in the air,
to have you wash over me like a wave from the sea
and to feel your wet tongue as it savors all of me.

I long to wear you like the joyous curve of my smile,
to wear you like the laughter which echoes all the while,
to dissolve in the mist of you, the beat of your heart,
to wear you like a cloud-veil whenever you depart.

I long to wear you like azure heaven wears the sun,
to follow the paths you take wherever you might run,
to blossom in your love-light shining sweet and divine,
to simply be your shadow and know that you are mine.

I long to wear you like tender twilight wears a star,
to wear you like a dream come true in all that you are,
wear you every day and night, never to be shed,
to wear you like a comforter draped across my bed.

I long to wear you like a ribbon that tops a gift,
wear you like a garter belt beneath my satin shift,
wear you like a memory, the echo of a sound,
to wear you like a pretty charm dancing all around.
