her trust

You slept I could not I stood trembling, lost in thought You on one side, me on the other Yet I blushed when I pulled back the covers I slid in carefully under the sheets Praying our skin would not touch or meet My heart racing out of control Wanting to have you, wanting to hold Feeling every vein in my body pulse with that relentless beat Like a volcano wanting to erupt, surging with heat Pulling the pillows and the sheets up tight Feeling the urge to flee or fight No where to run, no where to hide Trying to fight this need inside I've overcome this battle of pain and lust And won something more important, her trust.

I fell in love with this poem when I read this and wanted to share. Hopefully you all enjoy it as much as I did.
