Controlled Temptations Poem by Deborah Cromer

Controlled Temptations

Rating: 4.7


You come near, and I want you so very close
You have given me life, in a packaged mega-dose
I want to pull you up close to me hard
My mind and memory have been blessed, but scarred
Yes, to feel you right here, and right now
You touch me in a way, only you know how
Solid, strong, warm and tender so much
Out of control, through your magnificent touch
Find me, come to me, set me free
Release the power inside, I like what I see
The need I have for your warmth, is out of control
Desires overtake my heart, mind, body and soul
Temptations dwell within a look given fast
Lingering moments, I take and save, until the very last
I stood at the doors, looking out into the storm
I felt your breath on the back of my neck, it was warm
While holding the doors, I heard your voice gently speak
Coming up from behind me softly, mildly and meek
The tone of your voice makes my heart race
My heartbeat and breathing, together pick up pace
When I see you walk by, the world is grand
Temptation to taste you one more time, is more than I can stand

Your phrasing is superb in this poem of controlled passion, it made me recall the urgency of first love in youth.

At times I wonder if there could be a poetess as good as thee the one who put in poems, all the heart and pain no matter what she writes about, sunshine or rain let me pray for you and your hand your poetic world as grand as god's kingdom your poems breeding freedom
