Come My Darling. Poem by Res John Burman

Come My Darling. Hold me tight,
Kiss me now and through the night,
To love so well will break no law,
So kiss me now then kiss me more.


And while you undertake this task
There's just one thing that I ask
For now I want to kiss your back
And everywhere else, come to that!

There's a hunger in you I can feel,
So no more armour, no more steel
I want to kiss each dip and swell
Each lovely breast and scar as well.

Let lips and fingers create desire
And stroke and stoke, and stoke that fire,
So curling toes and bottom dance,
And always always more romance

Come lie with me and be my maid
In this battle you'll need no blade
There'll be no winner, nor vanquish-ed
Just the glory of your bridal bed

So come to me and be my sweet
I'll love you from your head to feet
I love you now and to your core,
I'll love you, love you, evermore.
