I will take your heart.I will take your soul out of your body
As though I were God.
I will not be satisfied
With the touch of your hand
Nor the sweet of your lips alone.
I will take your heart for mine.
I will take your soul.
I will be God when it comes to you.
-- Langston Hughes

Whoa. I tried to write a poem like that once. Now that I don't have those feelings/desires anymore, it's strange to read them from someone else -- it sounds so dramatic.
I know. It's my absolute favorite. Written by someone who knew love (for lack of better term).
