A Love Affair with Poetry

We'll start dressed and civil.
Hard and jacketed.

Lean your arms back,
stretch yourself,
widen your legs.

Feel the way your mouth moves.

Your tounge.
Your lips.

Feel your breath escape you.

The rush and Pull.

Your heart beats faster now.

This is nothing simple
nothing easy
nothing new

Your soul meets another

feel the rocking,
the rhythm.

Bite your lip in anticipation.

This is far more
beautiful
enticing
captivating
enchanting

than sex could ever be.

You gasp a way your lover
never
made you gasp.

You're taken in a way
your lover never took.

Your heart aches
and loves
and needs

in a way
no lover

Could make you.

It makes you feel.

the real kind.

the way no lover ever could.
