The call from the lobby informed me that I have a male visitor,

He will arrive on elevator A

My hand trembles in sweet anticipation…

My fingers tingle

My heart is pounding

My mouth is dry

My knees are weak

My mind is racing

My vision is blurred.

The elevator doors open and I rush into your embrace.

The sensation of your arms engulfing me,

makes me feel intoxicated and flushed

I have waited so long to touch your face

To rub my palms along the curve of your cheek

To feel the soft whiskers of your beard and mustache

Beneath my fingertips

To slowly draw your face toward me

To feel your warm breath tickling my cheek and neck

To feel the heat and softness of your lips against my mouth

To experience the sweet plundering of your tongue dueling with mine

As I take your hand, drawing you to my condo door

Planning to share my space and my heart with you, I realize that

We have finally reached our destination

Ahh, sweet anticipation

The best is yet to come
