My Senses Poem by Laurie Crilly

I hear your voice and my heartbeat speeds, pounding hard against my chest.

I see your smile and I have to catch my breath, heavy beneath my breast.

I smell your scent and try to calm my nerves, heightened by your essence.

I feel your body close to mine and I become lost within your presence.

And when I taste your lips, your neck, your chest, and so much more,

the symphony of my senses leaves me helpless, and shaken to my core.

Savoring all these feelings I am aware that nothing less will do

my ears, my eyes, my nose, my mouth all tell me I must have you.
