On The Lips of His Kiss

Weak in the knees and unable to stand,
I hold hostage my breath as he kisses my hand.
The long-forgotten senses begin to rise
as he lifts his head and looks into my eyes.

I meet his gaze and am lost in the sight,
lost to the fancies that have taken flight.
A rose in my cheeks is passionately pressed
like a jewel that weighs on a faltering breast.

I can smell his fragrance; it whispers now
in the breath that breathes against my brow.
My senses leave; I cannot speak
as he gently bends to kiss my cheek.

His skin is such sweetness to my fingertips
as he holds me and brings my lips to his lips.
The sighs, the passion, the burning within
at once consumes as he kisses my skin.

A warm breeze blows, the gift of the south.
I succumb to the beauty of the way of his mouth.
Now softly circling, now wandering astray,
he's at once an angel and a demon at play.

Drowning in desire that pours like rain,
we are carried by the flood as we kiss again.
So blind to the world, and hardly the fashion,
I am kissed and kiss with the fullest of passion.

Thirsting, unslaked, and unsatisfied.
A kiss left unkissed is a kiss denied.
As a drop in search of the salient sea,
his kiss is the kiss inside of me.

In the glow of the morn inside his embrace,
I whisper of love as I kiss his face.
My joy, my life, and so much more than this!
Eternity lives on the lips of his kiss.

This reads and feels like a lucid dream, a shamanic connection, a living Outer Limits episode.

"As a drop in search of the salient sea,/ his kiss is the kiss inside of me."

As lyrically simple as your lines appear to be, your soul is that of an enigmatic priestess of heart-erotic religion. Approaches, ebbs and flows are subtle currents initiated/embraced on a subtle plane of existence, to be fully incarnated in the flesh at some exquisite hour appointed by a sophisticated interplay of dharmic destiny.

I've only read two of your poems, but you are an undiscovered gem in my opinion :)

Your writing is so elegant. It cascades through my mind like ripples, getting bigger and bigger by the second until it envelops me whole; I love it. The rhymes are excellent once more so I commend you on that. There is so much emotion and feeling on this page (and all it for about the sacred kiss), I could almost feel the warmth and passion emanating through my monitor; just plain awesome!

Very well done!
:)
