Still Wishing

Still wishing Along the lines of fantasy with crystal glasses flowing the brim Soft hands would meet on white linen, as your eyes take me places I have never been Silence tingles while our hearts speak across candle flame and glittered dreams Such is the beauty of this night neither belong, yet here we are Fears generate passion on this perfect evening so young, and our love forbidden, taboo but breathing of temptation Lips ignite a fire within, looking over shoulders for whoever only finding desires calling in the mist of the crowded city Scented bliss finds me, arms reach for a touch, long hot touch behind closed doors holding back all but the guilt Still a fever burns as skin blushes beneath moon lit intoxication Silhouettes merge, moist in cravings lone of simpler moments Fingers dance and sighs sing, satin sheets spill to unsuspecting floors when deep in the throws is found, words have no meaning Whispers lose their bearing as oceans part and white foam pleasure caresses the smooth shore on this uncharted island called love Startled by the waiter refilling my glass I still see you across the room lingering in his smile, lost in his hypnotic gaze and here I sit, still . . . wishing it were me Good night Soupers

Thanks so very much Rebecca...yeah, those waiters never show up when you want them too, but boy are they there when you don't need them. :)

Awww, that's painful, it almost feels like my longing for my long distance love. It's tantalizing, so close, and still not true. You can feel it, and it evades you. Sleep well, Chris.

I don't know how you do it! One lovely love poem after another, but this one with a comic twist. Enjoyed it, Chris.
