spin spin sugar

Dylan eased the craft onto the tarmac.
smooth as silk.
checked the levels.
camber, hydraulics, thrusters.
and juice.
he eased it forward.
speed steadily rising.
Daphne giggled with glee as she watched his hands move over the controls.

"you ready?"
"already!"

the leap forward was unbelievable.
nanotech at its best.
he knew what he was doing.
excellent timing.
deceleration, curves, hairpins.
at the last turn, sideways as he braked.
gentle halt.
panting.
rapid heartbeats in spite of the safe surroundings of the interior.

"another spin?"
"do you?"

meaning "you bet!"
Dylan smiled. that's my Daphne.

my goddess

i want you
i don't just want you
i want you

i don't think you understand

i want you as much as the world needs calm
i want you as much as heaven lacks harm

as the feet long for one more mile
as the chest hurts for one more breath
as envy tastes oh so vile
as to abandon you would mean my death

i want you for pleasure and for pain
i want you like chocolates and cocaine

an obsession this is not
an addict i am not
but to you i am drawn
without choice, reason long gone

i will you to understand
and you must comprehend
there is nothing i can do
give me the world...but i'll just want you
