Description
Do you hear it?Listen.
Every cell in my body
is screaming your name.
Billowing, beckoning, begging
for you to come closer,
to slake their insatiable thirst
for you, commanding you to
Fill up their aching membranes with your love.
Can you quench them?

reminds me of this quote i stole off the internet. but yes, i have felt this!
'In this moment, I understood for the first time in my life what it was to feel attracted to someone. Not to think they were funny or to enjoy their company, or even to find one thing about them cute, like their dimples, or their hands, but to feel that physical pull toward them. I just wanted to close my eyes and have my body against his.'

I agree with Flora up there. It's much more tangible and real when you write about love using physical manifestations of it as opposed to just emotions and far-out metaphors and whatnot, so you can feel it a lot more strongly when you read this than when you read most other poetry in the romantic genre. Nicely done!

Vampiric. Yet slightly more enigmatic. I highly enjoy writing about love in comparison to its reaction to the human body.
Very good.

Very passionate...
...though, because our generation is corrupted, I have to say this could totally be from the perspective of a vampire.
(I'll hang myself for saying that later)
Good work though!

...wow. As long as it's not a Twilight vampire, I'm okay with this comment. Lol. Thank you!
