Those Lips

Those lips,
     enticing, soft and warm
Hidden, in part, by your mustache
tickling my neck and ear
as you softly kiss and tease

Those lips,
     pleasing, smiling
how often I've touched,
tasted and kissed
those wonderful lips

Those lips,
     now weary, tight with pain
tinged in blue as you fight to breathe, 
to kiss me one last time, and
whisper "I love you" through
                                          those lips.

Hoping to get back here soon, with Dave sick and a new puppy, seems I have no time for me and my poetry anymore. Thank you for stopping by and commenting. I miss PS so much!
