Close and Lean In 


Imagining that first moment 
Our first kiss to be precise
wondering how Its going to feel 
and the method I use to entice
I play it through in my mind 
I need you here to do the rest
but a lovers first kiss is important
I hope to pass this test 

An awkward lean a momentary pause
could change this moment forever
its fine that you would understand
but forget this I will never 

you stand before me a vision of perfection
an angel in disguise
moving towards you feeling anxious
I’m falling within your eyes 

holding you close to my body 
I become weak at the knees
but now time holds no importance
the world around us does freeze 

I close my eyes as do you
and lean in for our kiss
our soft lips touch one another
I’m happy I didn’t miss 
our mouths now slightly open
our tongues come out to play
but gently we do move in motion
our rigorous tongues a roaring ocean 
I brush the hair behind your ear
open one eye slightly just to know you’re here

neither of us want to end 
this true loves first embrace
our first kiss was so magical
your mouth I love to taste
many more will follow
but none quite strong as this
feeling the butterflies the beating hearts
our perfect first kiss

Anticipating and practicing in a way for the first kiss .. beautiful .. makes me think of my first kiss..Somewhat childlike as said below.. the kiss not your writing.. i love this line-- " our soft lips touch one another
I’m happy I didn’t miss " sweet and a bit funny.. I enjoyed the poem..

It was sweet, and childlike…I am not quite sure why. Its reminds me how important those first steps are, the first touch, the first love…how writing can allow us to capture a single moment with vivid details. Thank you=]!

I think you should write more of the romantic, love poems
I am enjoying them very much
this was very affectionate and sweetly romantic,
the first kiss is one of the few moments that will never disappear from memories, beautifully written!
