I Anticipate Poem by Mark Heathcote

Like two swans 
I believe we should be paired for life.
And look out for one another.
We both want the same things.
I'm not rushing you, but you know I want you.

I want you to want me.
I want to be deep inside of you, darling.
I want you to take me and make me yours,
I'm a Leo; we Leo's fall forever.
Set-your-claim love-me.
… We're going to be so entangled.
It will feel heavenly.
I want you; I want you. I want you to make love to me.

You are already mine, darling.
I'm claiming yours.
You're weakening for a divine taste.
A morsel of my love and my weakness for you. 
I want to absorb your every breath as you melt in my arms, powerless.
I want you, like a bee, to visit the first-ever flower opening velour in the sunshine, closing
tight back around its stem in the moonlight
I want to make starlight within you.
Inside of you and watch your beauty glow.
And spangle like the stars above the foaming sea. 

I want you. I want you, darling. I want you. I want you to be my love. Not like anyone I have ever known.
A dragon; fires breathing; my heart the only thing 
You leave, I anticipate.
