if at first you're going to take me
THEN TAKE ME
b/c i saw a color in you that sent my eyes blurry searching for reality
and you were HERE
and you held my HAND
and you touched my LIPS
and you focused on my EYES
and i was dizzy with this haven
the feel of your HAIR
the taste of your SKIN
the smell of your COLOGNE
the fixation of your EYES
and there was this craving in the pit of my stomach that sent my heart spinning searching for love
or lust
or trust
or affection
and there you were, here you are
so i tell you
if at first you're going to take me
then TAKE ME
b/c i am rendered immobile in your presence
but my body is warm to the touch

Like a dirty ole man lookin at porn, this poem made me smile one of those "devious" smiles...
I enjoyed reading, and re-reading this peice.
It sounds so bad, yet so enticingly good.

These are my favourite parts i think they are so apt and descriptive.. perhaps i see it from a slightly diff. perspective to Hannibal lol. I'm going to show my ignorance here I guess but why the caps... is it like a flash of a synecdoche.. kind of juxtaposed senses???? I'm perhaps just not reading it as you intended me to.. get back to me cos i thought the idea was great.

thankyou.
about the caps, i just put them in b/c i wanted those words to have more emphasis, like if i was reading it aloud, they would be stronger.
it also made me feel as if the narrator was in a sense begging, and i don't know if someone would get that otherwise.
ie: "then TAKE ME" and all of the feelings that she sensed and took in. this was something that would stick in her mind.
