a four-letter word
 I dare not use when 
I am near her 
when I feel her breath
 against my cheek 
her breasts against my chest
 her lips pressed
against my lips
 hips against hips 
a four-letter word 
I can't resist 
mumbled when we kiss 
a word that best describes 
the urge when we come 
uncomfortably close 
and what I want most
 a word uttered much
too often
 in polite society 
and yet describes 
what I feel need, want most 
a four-letter word 
I learned as a kid
 yet not completely 
what it means 
still uttered like an oath
 a promise
 a commitment yet 
so tainted it hurts
 when I speak of it
too much 
a four-letter word
 I think even when I
don't say it
 stirring me
