As We Were

A long road is ten years

Ten years. Yes, almost exactly. Biking to school I, all big-mouthed and cocky, sped past her on my racing bike, grasping at her jet-black plait. Me, away laughing. At fifteen, a tinge of jealousy when she held hands with Norman? I would vehemently deny th...

When I asked if I could kiss you, you said Yes with surprise

Of a certain age...

I kissed you and I don’t know why; it was certainly forbid, You said Yes when I asked you, and then we definitely did. I don’t know you but your eyes are soft brown, Your face is of an angel. Eggshell blue, your formal gown. We’d never met before but when...

First Kiss

all only saw an old man, but you saw so much more.

  From the first, You captured me. Placing a love hex, Around this old heart. First night, As you gave. Making my heart sing, As never before. First kiss, Needing so much more, From that first kiss. Bringing us together. After that kiss, We both knew. Our...

Whatever honey drips from my lips would taste infinitely sweeter if pressed into a kiss So kiss me with abandon and hear the song my heartstrings play that I might hold you tight and let the beat take our breath away Until I can finally wake to your beaut...

  You've touched my heart to my very soul.You came into my life and made me whole.  I wish I could lie down beside you when each day is done, and wake up to your face in the soft light of the rising sun. I've held you tight in my armsand kissed your lips...

He left today without a kissHe was running late It is but a kiss you sayBut now I'm in dismay Why? You ask,It’s just a kiss But it's his kiss that starts my day,Without it I am empty And now I’ve lost my way Maybe he doesn’t realize how important his kiss...

I would love to kiss your lips when they're moist with wine and painted red with desire. Gaze into your eyes where your love smolders glowing with passions fire. Feel your bodies warm alabaster flesh burn against mine in a romantic embrace imaging strands...

Special Dream

My special dream last night, was so vivid and so clear;We were as one - together; He was with me - right here;I gazed into his dark brown eyes as we released our soulful sighs;So pure and sweet - such ecstasy; to have my man make love with me;He then rose...

First Date

Dinner on the pier,A stroll along the sand,Stop to watch the sunset,Standing hand in hand;Casually, he leans over,Asks, "Babe, would you likeanother date like this?'Before I can answerhe softly kisses me on the lips.
