Frenzied Love

By the time we reached the house we were out of breath –

I remember laughing as we raced one another;

You got their first but I grabbed you -- tumbled over –

You collapsed too and we lay there as though in death.

Granted second wind we fought then to get our key –

But manage it we did falling indoors at pace;

Clothes flew everywhere in an energetic race –

Inhibitions disappeared as we became free.

We kissed – frantically – as though it was our last –

Desperate almost - - every touch excited;

We made love in a frenzy until exhausted –

That spirit of madness took us but slowly passed.

Out of breath once more we held hands and kissed again –

So much in love – hearts beating in time like a train.
