Just one more time

Just one more time
I must love again
and know that she
wants me against her

and let my eyes
cut into the soul
of somebody.

Once more I have to feel
how hot lips
burn passionate and soft
under mine,

how the touch of a hand
causes sparks like electricity
to originate between us.

Just one more time
I must feel
the hotness of the dew
fold around me
and say to somebody:

“I love you”
and really mean it
