The nearest of you

It’s not the pale moon of your face
Thrilling and delighting me
That excites me; oh no
It’s just the nearness of you

Even
it isn’t your alluring conversation
triggering and provoking me
That inflames my desire, oh no
It’s just the nearness of you

When you are so close
All my wildest thoughts let loose

I need no soft lights to adorn
If you only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight
And to feel
In the darkest dark of night
The vibrating nearness of you
