Longing Desire

As we lay quietly on the couch
I felt his breath on my neck

Strands of my long blonde hair
Intertwined in his fingers

The silence
Was driving me into temptation

How I longed for our lips
To touch once again

To feel the burning sensation
As we made love to each other

If only...

I tilted my head
So that I could see his face

Our eyes
Suddenly locked on one another

Slowly he moved in
And kissed me

The kiss was so strong
Almost like wild fire

He pressed himself
Against my chest

I felt his fingers
Gently unbuttoning my shirt

Then he stopped
And our kiss ended

"Why'd you stop?"
I asked sadly

"Shhhhh..."
He placed a finger on my lips to silence me

He got up off the couch
And cradled me in his arms

"Where are we...."
He stopped me before I could finish

He walked up the stairs
And into the spare bedroom

He shut the door behind us
And the rest was left a secret

For what we did next
Had been the desire I had longed for

"I love you"
Were the last words spoken behind closed doors

beautiful poem of first love...........

[Coyote Poetry]

A very nice poem of love and desire. The hardest part of life is cutting through the fear and being honest. I like the pace and the description in the poem. A excellent poem.

That is a 'living' moment...
Part dream and part granted wish...
