Solemnizing Sensibly

I taste you in my spit
On the side of my mouth
On my crusty dried lips
Douse me, Drench me
Moisturize

I smell you on my clothing
Thoroughly woven and fabricated 
Deeply perfumed and gauntleted 
Indulge me, Inflame me
Tantalize

I feel your image on my skin
Beneath thin layers
Under thin barriers
Fondle me, Fumble me
Tenderize

I hear you in the distance
With bullhorn and flute
Aside balm and brute
Hear me, Heal me
Satirize

I see you from afar
But I want you up close
But I never come close
Teasing me, Taunting me
Solemnize
