Touch Me Please

A variant on the English form is the Spencerian sonnet, named after Edmund Spenser (c.1552-1599) in which the rhyme scheme is, abab, bcbc, cdcd, ee.

Touch Me Please

In total darkness now, the clock strikes twelve -
There's nothing here - no love, no laugh, no light.
But into dreams of you I jump, I delve.
Please save me from this dark and lonely night.

I feel you here beside me, not in sight,
The warmth of body barely touching mine -
Resisting urges, sadly losing fight,
Please show me something strong, show me a sign

Of love for which I beg, I plead, I pine.
I've needed you since days were bright and hot
So let me taste the taste of lips of wine
And hide your heart from me, I beg you not.

Oh, touch me please, I need you can't you see -
Your love is all I need to set me free.
