Reconnecting

By the gods

I was kissed

And days later

My face is still flushed

And my heart is burning

With the memory of those lips

So sweet and innocent

With nostalgia at it's core

I want to be held 

As I'm kissed

My dreams are filled

With images of those arms

Wrapped tightly around me

Sitting in class

I'm vibrating

Anticipation coursing through me

And a big, dumb grin

Stretching my cheeks

Until they hurt

I missed this

Will you kiss me again?

Indeed the exciterment and anticipation are well portrayed in this fast flowing freeverse as the protagonist reflects and relives that first kiss.

This poem is really well written. It is a clichéd love poem but it makes the heart flutter. I love that there is no punctuation because I do feel it flows more smooth that way. Each line is filled with the love emotion so there is no straying from the topic you wanted to say and as I said you express your emotions well.
