Surrounded by muted light
I watch you remove the
garments that hide your
soft white rising curves.
I watch your shoulder lower
as if I was placing a kiss
tenderly upon your neck.
The flatness of your tummy
and rounded bend of your hips
echo the whispers of my lips
placed gently on your skin.
With a gentle cruelty you
tauntingly turn away,
please not yet,
I have not finished
wanting you.

The wanting is your emptiness...of your lips not where they desire to be...I do not feel like this is for a long time here...like a moment of emptiness...which I like...you have made this so beautiful
Thank you for your entry...

echo the whispers of my lips
