Alors! Poem by Mary Champion

His blue eyes liquidate my senses,
including that one mislabelled common.
My knees and my principles grow weak
as conscience is stifled.
Even my diffident character is overthrown
as desire drowns out all caution and doubt.
From dawn till dusk and even in my dreams
my head is filled with Him!
My heart aches for Him!
My whole body craves Him!
I imagine His arms around me,
His lips on mine.
I live only to blend my body with His
to feel His flesh against mine
- to surrender to ecstasy in His embrace.
His blue eyes shine with naked admiration
and, for the first time in my life,
I feel beautiful.
