I watch your eyes
they mesmerize...
I watch your lips
they entice...
I watch you stretch
you beguile...
You glance my way
You smile...
I smile...
Those lips...
What would they
be like to kiss?
Soft and gentle?
Teasing?
Insistent?
When I pulled back, would you lean in?
Your arms...
Could they
lift me up?
Would they command
Demand my love?
When I walked past
Would they pull me close?
You glance my way
Thoughtful now....
You look
I look
I smile
You smile
We cannot seem to look away
We watch a while...
I wonder
You wonder
If we kissed...
Would it be tender?
Passionate?
Sweet surrender?
I smile...
You smile...
You know.
I know.
You drop your head
ever so slightly
a query...
a question...
a challenge.
I tilt my head
in delicate defiance
in answer...
in anticipation...
in acceptance.
The tension builds...
The focus sharpens.
Behold now
The stage is set.
The sights and sounds around us cease
As we remain transfixed
At ease
The jungle drums
a distant roar
build up...
as you
as I
we make our move...

mouse
hmmmmm it appears that my writing seems to shock even you mouse...
i have generated quite a ruckus!

Hi, My first comment today was as anonymous cause i didnt know how you will respond. But seeing your easy going response i am adding my second comment under my sign-in name.
I am aware of the concept of creative license but most of your poems and some paintings are about the sacred union between the human genders. I believe that conciously or sub conciously, an artist is projecting his or her experiences/wishes/desires through their creations. Thats why I made that link..But offcourse thats just an analysis that might be wrong .. you being the artist/poet have the final word on it
that was a very lovely/touchy poem ....
though sum time way back during the days of o'levels i used to rap n all .... n cos of dis poem i cant stop gettin into the beats n all... :) ...
but this one has nothing to do with rap but really catchy ;) !!!
