Kiss Me

I wonder why you do that…
it is like you’re on the edge.
You lean in to kiss me.
You’re so close I can feel your heat.
I can see the glistening drops of moisture just above your beautiful lips
My body quivers with desire
My heart pounds and then stops as my breath catches
And then at the last second
you hold yourself back.
I know you want to kiss me
I know you want to wrap me in your arms
And hold me
But you hold back
Maybe you worry you’ll feel too much
Maybe you fear you will melt into me
And lose yourself
But if you could read my mind
You would know I am dying inside
needing you desperately
Longing for you to kiss me…
