my trembling fingers reaching outwardly through the umbrage of shadows longing to feel your touch my heart quickens beneath forbidden thoughts as i thrust myself forward in the pulse of my dreams the quaver of my lips part in silence to the kiss of temptation appetence unfulfilled November 27,2019 Pick A Title, Vol 11 - Kimo(3 Stanzas) - Poetry Contest Sponsored by Edward Ibeh
