I Am What You're Missing



I am what you've been missing.
From head to toe.
Hugging in the kitchen
Kissing.
Until we knew to know,
It gets better in the bed to touch.
Loving what we did to do together.
Done so much.

Yes I am what you've been missing.
To turn it up hot.
Unlock your door and stop.
Pretending I am not.

I'm outside in the car to start a foreplay.
If you want it here,
I'll begin on your neck,
Then quick to lick your ears.
Outside in my car,
I stay horny day and night.
Thinking of you.
And how we rocked the bed until,
The dawn on grass dewed.

'Deweď?'

You know,
Like dew on grass to see,
As dawn appears...
on the horizon as the Sun rises.
Slowly drying the grass of its dew.
Leaving me crowing as a Rooster does to do,
A cockel doodle doo.
While coming to a close our knocking boots.

'I don't remember wearing boots to bed.
Or...
A knocking of them.
To sounds of a rooster crowing,
Cockel doodle doo.
Those are not my memories.'

I'm trying to be romantic.

'OH!
So...
How could I have missed,
What didn't happen at all?'

Forget it.
My ambitions just too a nose dive.
And what I had anticipated,
Dropped like stock watching Dow Jones.

'Like who?
Now you know I am not into threesomes.
Although...
It is a thought I might try.'
