He whispered to her. Standing
above her, holding her head to his chest he said, ‘I want to make love to you.
I want to kiss you from your hair to your toes. I want to know you. And then I
want to go away and lie down and think of you after I have done these things.
All I want to do on our first night is to explore your body, to feel your heart
at your fingertips. I want to taste you and know what makes you tick. I do not
want to penetrate you, not tonight. Tonight is your night. It is I who will
show you how much I want to satisfy you. And after all this I want to walk away
and dream of you and the day I will make more love to you. I want you to
remember, I do not want you to conceive, not now. I want it to be a day and many more days when
all I do with you is get to know each other. I want us to know what makes us
squeal, cry with passion, what makes us want what we want from each other. I
want to know you and all of you. I want to touch the parts of you that you are
afraid to touch. The places you are afraid to go to. The things you are afraid
to know. I want us to embrace life together. I want to be here and there where
you are. I want to hear you when you speak. When you say what you are not
saying so that one day we can just say what we mean. I want to share the
simplicities and complexities of life with you and carry you in my heart every
day. I want you. – Excerpt from ‘Deep Inside’
