I Could Just Hold You

a poem from a time passed by…

By Anna CunninghamPublished about a year ago 1 min read

I could just hold your belly

in my hands

Your thighs,

Your breasts,

Your face in my hands.

I could just hold your

Heart in this space

Your mind on my tongue

Your forehead against mine ,

Your hands in my hands .

When we make love,

I don’t hold back

Because you’ve got me, you’ve got me

For now , in this space,

your body

Against me

Your mouth on my edges .

I love you.

These simple things,

You, all of you

Is what I want

This treasured moment

To be in.

To say that I keep your heart

In my hands

Your head in my arms

Your body against me

Making love

In the Morning I am Yours,

In the Evening I am Yours,

All day my mind

Comes back to you,

And what I see is beautiful.
