Take away all my pain, self-imposed or otherwise.
Make me swallow bottled pleasure again and again; only to regret that will come afterwards.
Make my heart hollow, my mind ablaze with lust, my limbs free, my loins open.
Make me do what I'd swore only in my innermost dreams.
Let me be the talk springing from the lips of every one who sees me.
That women may envy and men may desire.
Enslaved by my beauty and wit, among other things.
Make them see me the way I see myself in ardent vision - chocolate ice cream dipped in fudge syrup.
Rich, softly molded, melting to the heat of touch.
My sweetness thick and mellow, lingering on the back of the tongue just before going down. And like ice cream on a summer day, he'll work harder to prevent my juices from escaping him. And he'll relish that labor, deeming it his favorite for it is the most rewarding.
Dear Mr. Fantasy,
I drink to you. As well to all my fevers, desires, rash decisions and impulsive judgements. They drink to you as well. For my desires and I are nothing without each other - and we are nothing without you.
Author notes
Title of course from song by Steve Winwood, Traffic. Regardless of what the song may actually mean, this is simply my own interpretation.
Please tell me what you think
