First Kiss

Sidelong glance

dazzled

heat sizzles in the air

from the moment that I saw you

from the moment you first smiled

I felt my heart

thaw

expand within my chest.

No expectations

asked me for a walk

raised eyebrow

so old fashioned

such charm.

Stroll through the garden park

sweet song of evening birds

scent of freshly mowed grass

my eyes linger upon your lips

even as the melody of your voice

caresses my bare skin.

Take my hand

thumb caresses my palm

I giggle

shy

hair falling to hide my face

I quake

with desire

with fear

I want to be free

I want to open myself to ye

hold back

I am unable to let you in

I will not let you see.

You tip my head back

fingers caress my throat

along the curve of my cheek

your fingers curling in my hair.

I glance at your lips

licking mine

looking up at you

you come closer to me

your breath warm on my face.

My breath

short gasps

your mouth covers mine

I groan.

Soft

tongue tapping

message of desire

fireworks explode

within the twilight.
