The taste of your skin lingers, even this long after parting, always on the tip of my tongue, soft as a whisper, gentle as a sigh.
The memory lulls me into slumber. Your heart beating, steady, sure, seductive, in the hollow between your shoulder blades, a temptation too sweet for my lips to resist.
A thousand times I did not resist.
I wonder if you still feel the impression of my kisses, if the warmth left in their wake soothes you while I am away.
With an acute ache I wonder, as I drift, if you know…
If you know how deeply I crave…
How tenderly I savor…
You.
Whew — passion a plenty here !
Passion O’Plenty. Sounds like the name of an old school Bond Girl. 😉
Lovely words as always 🙂
It reminds me of a song, I forget the name but there’s a lyric “will your mouth still remember the taste of my love”
Oooh, I like that! 🙂
Music expresses so much more than words alone ever can. The simplest lyrics somehow become profound when put to a melody.
I completely agree 🙂
I went and looked up the lyrics on YouTube because they were so striking. “Thinking Out Loud” by Ed Sheeran. 🙂
My favorite song by him is “Kiss Me”:
That is a good one too 😉
