THE EDGE OF YOUR SKIN : Romantic Poetry

written by Poet : jeffbresee


Whatever so lightly glides over

 The edge of my skin

 Controlling my breath

 Removing my will

 Too close to you have I drawn

 But I have desired of ages to be

 Drawn in

 And now, in this moment

 I fear to move

 Nor even to open my eyes

 And I feel only

But to lie

Motionless, and bathe…submersed

 In your warmth

 In your scent

 In your caress

 Which doth carry me effortlessly across

 The darkness of void

 And binds me

 Forever…

 To the edge of your skin

                 …Jeff Bresee
