Ache

I am sick with want
a hand to touch 
a kiss to hold
an ache for something
old as time, but new and
blooming. 

To feel my teeth against 
teeth
To laugh at how simple
falling in love is

To love, stupid fumbling
love, unendingly
to open my heart

Deep, emotional and filled with tender longing. Your thoughts caress softy around me and my heart. That sweet ache seems to never go away. So beautifully written and presented, AC. My best to you. ~ Brandy
