If Only For Tonight

I long to be touched
I yearn to feel
Awaken this still heart of mine

Steal my time
with your kisses
your desire
you.

Let consequences and concerns be forgotten
The only thing that matters 
is right here and right now.

Take me to that place
where inhibitions cease to exist.

Devour my mouth
my body
my soul.

Kiss my mind.
Satiate this craving that we both have
until there is nothing left to give.

If only for tonight.

This is a nice take on the prompt. I enjoyed reading this poem. I loved these lines:
"Steal my time
with your kisses
your desire
you."

They are very sensual and powerful.

Well done:~)
