I Remember

I Remember. . . ..
          I remember how my insides
          fluttered
          at the brush of your lips
          like a hundred tiny hummingbirds.
          I remember 
          your smell
          the taste of your skin
          delicious and intoxicating.
          I remember
          the contours of your face
          your smile
          and how your mouth
          made me wet with desire.
          But most of all, I remember
          that place in the small of your back
          where my hands would go
          when you held me close.
And I remember then,
          how I loved you.
