To Hold Him Dear Poem by Danusha Marie

His lips are sweet
Like drips of honey
Tender passion
Stirring emotion
Giving rise
To hopes of devotion

Full and soft
Like heaven’s touch
Reaching deep
Evoking feeling
Leaves my heart
And my mind reeling

His touch so caring
Like hearts embrace
Firm but gentle
Love personified
Erasing memories
Of days I cried

His arms hold me close
Like joining our souls
Becoming one
Melting into each other
Losing myself
To the embrace of my lover

His love is honest
Like testimony sworn
Bliss warms
Transforming fear
Dissipating doubt
To hold him dear
