Held In Kisses

Lately I've been withholding poetry 
desiring to see if you're still into me?
 Ready for you to lie lingerie on lingering words repeating all the moans previously heard
hoping you'll undress all my meaning. 
Placing punctuations pre foreplay 
so we might experience 
 endorphin releasing endings 
from tongue touching beginnings.
 Trapped with no inclination of escape 
wanting to feel just how 
 refreshing a baptism can be.
 Reflections of a soul that absolutely knows
 exactly where it's supposed to be. 
You and me wiping steamy mirrors clean. 
Sorry I waited so long to tell you this. 
Please except my apology 
as your body gives pause 
for this mental applause
and your spirit yields
to a standing ovation.
