Touch me and I tremble…
your hands leaving trails of fiery heat.
Fingers that are alternately harsh and gentle
granting me life and sweet release.
Leave me and I lie aching
with desolate emptiness.
My body yearning for more
of your sweet guidance.
Command me and my heart
reaches out in obedience.
Responding with a will of its own
borne of my need to serve you.
Scold me and shame overpowers me…
leaving me sick inside.
And I long for another chance
to make you smile once more.
Enfold me in your chains of love
and I quiver in anticipation.
Willing you silently to draw my soul
ever closer to yours.
Claim me as yours, Sir
and my heart rejoices
Singing a song of servitude
which completes us both.
Push me beyond yesterday…
past where I thought I could go;
And my resistance subsides
until there is no me that is not you.
Fill me with your power
until I am borne aloft
Floating on wings of love
that give me glorious freedom.
Hold me tenderly and I dissolve
into a puddle of contentment
Snuggled safe in the arms
of my soul-mate.
