Lust

The Merriam-Webster dictionary gives us this definition for lust: usually intense or unbridled sexual desire – an intense longing. That is one way to describe it. For me lust has a life all its own – it is within all of us (well, the ones lucky enough to feel it – and the ones unlucky enough to lose it.) Lust is all encompassing. Lust takes over your thoughts, your emotions, and your soul. You feel it within every heartbeat. Every touch reeks with lust. Lust controls you when you need to stay in control. Lust follows you even when you try so hard to escape its seductive clutches. Lust wraps itself around you, making you dizzy, weightless, and even delirious. Its scent is heavy in the air. When you lust for something or someone, it is a wondrous and incredibly sensual feeling. You question how you have managed to go so long without it. Lust attaches itself to you as you fall helpless into its tempting arms.

When I feel the rush of lust it spreads through me like wildfire. My body comes alive and has a purpose. I feel it deep down in the pit of my stomach. It’s like an awakening of sorts; a pull from an unknown force, commanding, no, demanding my immediate attention. I am unable to refuse lust, it is so damn strong. My mind has abandoned all rationale. I’m a slave to my desires. I’m a slave to lust.

The way lust affects my body is amazing, to say the least. My breasts feel engorged; my nipples tingle, and become overly sensitive. The wetness between my legs, the fullness of my lips, and the need gnawing at my insides tells me that lust has most certainly infected me. I need to be filled, I need to be satisfied. The feeling is so strong, so powerful, that at times I have to stop and catch my breath.

The being that is lust is unlike anything I’ve ever felt before. Sometimes, without warning, lust is suddenly there inside me – beckoning for attention. Lust doesn’t care about anything but feeding the need. Pushing you towards the very object you desire. It’s like when two magnets of different polarity attract – lust pulls on your heartstrings. Lust confuses the hell out of you. Its alluring affects are like that of an addiction. You live lust. You breathe lust. You’re covered in lust. Lust knows no logic, no reason, no law and no boundary. Lust is a thirst that will drive you mad if ignored...

Lust…You try to make sense of it but cannot. You try to thrust it out of your mind but to no avail. You are left hopelessly in lust and there’s not a god damn thing you can do about it.
