Mothers’ come to visit in the middle of the night. There must be something unfinished, maybe there’s something more to say. Mothers’ come to visit from the other side of the grave. Mothers’ come to visit in the middle of the night, While I sleep I hear her speak, she only visits in my dreams….
The thing about being naked is… well, you’re naked. There is no false illusion: What you see is what you get… almost. Sure, many “I Love You’s” have been uttered while naked, but they are soon exposed for what they really mean, “I want you.” In some ways being naked is like being really drunk….
I long, no I ache to hold you near. To feel the softness of your breast under my palm. To feel the smooth skin of your thigh pressed near against mine, To see the ecstasy in your face as you climax time after time. To taste the nectar of your lips as we meet together…
