My heart is awakened, by the whispering of your mind.
In the silent hours, as you lay your head to dream
It seems,
My arms reach out into the dark of night.
I find you're not there, grip only air.
The scent of you lingers in my brain
Filling my heart with longing
Making me more insane. And then...
Then a crack of the door, and the glimmer of light
Intrudes into the night.
My breath catches in the air,
And suddenly....you are there!
Throw open that door! Let that light shine in!
Lay your love on me
Let me feel your soft skin.
Let me drink in your soul as we melt into one,
And smile 'cause it's like we've been warmed by the sun.
Love me tonight....Love me tomorrow....Love me forever.
How does this poem make you feel? What was your general impression?

Aw, I really liked the way you described the sensation of waiting and longing for the person you love and the way the emotions changed when that person arrived. Well expressed, appropriate use of language throughout. Thought the ending line was particularly effective. Excellent imagery and flow. Thanks for sharing.

I loved the way you showed anticipation. At first I thought it was about longing and loneliness but then as I read on it was about longing and love.... How inspiring, sensual and empowering! Great write!
