Save me a word,
Keep me in your mind,
Just sitting there, thinking as I do,
Quietly
Contemplating the thoughts you let slip
Into your dark eyes.
Save me a word,
Make it one that caresses your tongue,
Picture me kissing
The pleasure of its vowels
From your lips.
And smile, as our soft skin
Lightly brushes,
Crushes
Tentative, questioning, lost.
Save me a word.
Make it real in your mind,
To reflect stolen moments,
To remind you of the laughter we shared.
So when you think of my word, I’m there
Touching you,
Holding you close.
And those cold times
You feel like life has marked you,
Shaken and ragged.
Say my word out loud to the wind.
Let it wrap you tightly, as I would
If I could…
And know
You are loved.

So excited to see a new post! You have an uncanny gift for writing romantic poetry. This is so gorgeous and evocative and perfectly paced. Like a mini-symphonic movement. So happy to be able to read you again. 🙂

Where are my beautiful Juliette? I found your verbal words and I did miss your voice. Hello from Michigan and I hope you are doing well and having some fun.

Hello from Wiltshire to you too!
I know…. I miss my voice as well, its been very absent of late, I’m not sure how to change that. I’m taking the fact I’ve logged on to WordPress at all as a positive sign 😉
