Linger
stay close to me
let me feel your presence
with musky, cologne kisses ~ there
your voice a whispered secret always ~ here
remain my constant inner thought
sweet love, do not depart
beg ~ time stand still
Linger

===================

had to highlight the whole thing because not one beautiful word should be taken from the others..
this is such a lovely, softly sensual write..
absolutely wonderful Poetess Chris.

No matter what the differences
No matter what the cost
When words become our weapons ...
All that's beautiful is lost.
