What I want and need
Is the soft press of your mouth on mine
The whispered breath over my waiting lips
And I patiently wait for the sweet contact
Lips parted slightly
As a rose just beginning to bloom
Eagerly turning to the sun
A slight pressure
A joining of essence
An ecstatic meeting of two souls
In a brief moment
Time is suspended
Longing satisfied
Not a promise
Nor a pact
Just a gentle greeting
A delightful taste
Of your being and mine
Joining and parting
In the satisfied relief
Of having met in a kiss
