A Kiss

To lift your eyes slowly, unveils your face I'll search its contour, what it may reveal The world departs now and will leave no trace Warm lips caress then bond, a fragile seal This kiss from passion gives my spirit pause Whether it's from love, or a burning need To open desire, for its wanton cause We'll live with our reasons lovers concede I shall never squander this precious realm I'll cultivate its field with a slow hand Play in the lush garden that overwhelms and enjoy its fragrance sweet, senses command If love be of deed that a kiss could tell Then time falls silent in its space we dwell

This brings to mind the song "I want a lover with a slow hand" You have encapsulated "want" nicely with this fine piece of writing.
