Best Intimacy Poems

When one speaks of stars,
glitter and wishing come
to mind; wishes are easy
to find~a galaxy of them;

Thinking how easy one can get
lost in such vastness...a speck
of soul, even a good intentioned
god might not see or hear (one
could fear)

how many prayers must travel
unimaginable distances, mere
drops in an...

Inner circle of total trust
No other dare try enter
Tactfully earned year after year
Intimately nurtured with tender love
Many obstacles were thrown our way
And it’s together that we faced them
Candidly united we stood as one
Youth like a mist disappearing till it was gone

the closeness
mutual devotion
intimate
inseparable
a harmony uncommon

My God, When will it start
The love
The romance
The passionate kissing as 2 connect in the deepest part of their heart, mind, and soul
The chemistry of getting turned on by the touch of the other person
The nervous talking and bumping noses
The little laughs from eyelashes tickling...

Those love letters

emails,

across the globe

kisses,

reaching two souls.

still,

these dreams are hollow

their  presence is

missing.


Reality bites when

technology doesn’t permit

physical interraction.

Only words, words and words

travel through the wires.

Interconnected dreams

allows rapturous romance

For Technology cannot restrain desires



for all those who are willing to unite with their long distane love......

 If I were a baby’s breath 
I’d be the sigh
that bends the wheat as dawn slips by
a gentle chinook that softly speaks
a river’s pause….. before it breaks
the soulful love itself remakes.

If I were the moment 
I'd be the one
star that pierces through the dark
where...

At fifteen I was filled with passionate dreams
God breathed possibilities through my ambitions
I learned to feel with my heart, visions of a caress
Whispering through me when I first met him, my fantasy

At twenty-three I was older and wiser, longing for a touch
Imagining he was with...

My love, let us live this paradisal evening
dressed in wispy clouds of red
and tailored in strips of orange embellishing the horizon
where shades and shadows embrace your face
as the last glimmer of daylight falls
leaving a raptured sky of coral pink and red
enhancing your beauty in the...

You are partners...

over time before my adoring eyes
much like a rose past its prime
i saw you wither away

i didn’t think that love could
but it grew day by day
and how sweet its perfume

you gave me the gift of intimacy
opening your heart to the nth degree
your vulnerability most endearing

Gentle whisper of a caress
Softly touching, intimately
Soothing my worries, calming
Any anxiety with this hope
Inspired by a moment’s fulfillment
Satisfaction birthed within
A spiritual connection between
Two hearts, two souls, two feelings
Warming the way for every limitation
To become a fire for more joy
More sweet inspiration, imagination
More of every dream...

Intimacy
by Rahat Indori
loose translation by Michael R. Burch
 
I held the Sun, Stars and Moon at a distance
till the time your hands touched mine.
Now I am not a feather to be easily detached:
instruct the hurricanes and tornados to observe their limits!

their eyes 
they flutter
or is it propel
either way
a subtle prelude
to a kiss out of sync

their conversation
an amalgamation
of giggles and smiles 
more telepathy 
between hearts
than anything else

their legs 
entwined like shoestrings 
on a pair of old sneakers
seem to imply 
the mating ritual 
of hoverflies...
