Wake me

wake me
breathe on my neck
first slowly
then less slow

wake me
touch naked skin
first gently
then less so

shake me
raise up my pulse
first slightly
then let go

shake me
beat all my blood
pulsating
through my veins

​make me
stir dormant limbs
and whip them
into shape

​take me
make me a feast
and let me
quench your thirst

soothe me
send me to sleep
and kiss me
then let go  

From the song cycle "Next yesterday" with music by Antti Nissilä
