Tonight I took a long look
at myself in the mirror
and saw only you
consumed by your thoughts
creating within me
a passion so deep
that traces of you
pierce my soul.


I drove through streets
not concentrating on
all that was happening
around me because I was
too focused on what you
made happen inside me
inspired warmth
that seemed to spread
beneath your touch.


If tomorrow never comes
you would still be locked
within my heart with memories
of you touching me there
with your lips in shadows
beneath the moonlight
it feels so right when I
sway against your warmth
and feel desires rising
as you take my breath away.


The time was much too brief
producing torturous temptation
that built the gnawing void
that started even as
we say good-bye but then I
would not trade the us for
ignorance of knowing you
for in those times of being
us the love is everlast.


I am there for your pleasure
and touch... wanting, needing,
loving so much, I long to hear
your heartbeat next to mine
to share with you the beauty
of the sun by day and capture
the stars by night, to live
on and on, with a lifetime of us.


But lifetimes are not promised
and moments are uncertain
still those stolen hours
make us whole and in those
times I see no stars and
sense no sun upon my skin
for there is but the warmth of
you and that sustains me
'til again I'm in your arms.


I will walk through my days
whispering your name
breathing your scent
recalling those special moments
that unleashed from me the loving
I held inside, far too long
I will dream my nights feeling
you touch, pressing against me
gently caressing my silken skin
with each loving kiss
silently placed, freeing desires.


But when next that
we do meet and share a kiss
or touch and feel than we shall love
as if two starving desperate
souls were thrown a feast
unleashed desires there
within us both do press
us to return once more.

And this next time, shall it
only be for the night,
again I will cherish the depth
of the loving shared, retain
the visions my eyes beheld
when watching you smile,
held in arms of "after love"
and in each breeze that
comes my way, carried on it
will be your whispers, those
that fan the flames of desire
that bridge the gap of
"loving real" while we are apart,
until the time comes
that there will be no need...
to whisper anymore.

This is truly beautiful. Hopefully your time will come very soon. I have to say the title caught my eye. I have always loved that song by Garth Brooks.

Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats

An incredibly beautiful poem of love!

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

Nice, thanks for sharing

Don't ever give in, if you do you've lost everything you've ever had and everything you hope to gain, but if you carry on your already winning.

Beautiful. I liked this a lot.

Your time is here. Take one last look at it, then never come back. This part of your life is already over...

This is just the loveliest of thoughts.
I sense the care given and received ...
beautiful, lady.

A joyous celebration of love with a haunting poignancy...
