Whispers fondling neck and face in voice promising torment divine breath caressing each exotic place bringing sensations along the spine Hunger drawn from seeking lips unsated passion kept at length exploring hands, gentle finger tips arms holding back sinewy strength Eyes of desire, how they smolder looks flaming with tongues of fire wants and needs, growing bolder burning torment on blazing pyre Faint first kiss, scarcely a touch A beckoning to draw nearer yet this night when we loved so much sweet torment we shall not forget May 8th, 2016

Hi Lin, another excellent write flows from your pen, sensual thoughts painted onto a canvas that does possess the mind. I feel the inner heat rise within me and i remember moments that were locked behind doors in my mind. Now i give these thoughts an airing once more. The power of words. Love and romance sing from your words Lin. The gift of the heart you lay before us.The is a definite seven and a fave. Hugs....Mike. XX

Love has been described as divine, blind, eternal and a multitude of things--but rarely -sweet torment.. Which is strange since it is that in more cases than most ever dare to say or reveal.This is truly an exceptional poem my friend. I enjoyed reading this gem and remembering that time in my young life. A7

Love can be terribly tormenting when it's returned, and even more so when its been lost. Thank you for such lovely comments.
