The silent secrets of a sigh

the first glance in a lover's eye

The calming feeling, of a touch

the rise of tide and urgent rush

The warm caress of shallowed breaths

the promise of a love till death

Consumes the body and the mind

when bodies are laced and intertwined

When passion fuels the panting heart

in ways the tongue alone, cannot

With trembling hands and aching urge

the two compelled together, merge

And love, its captives, will embrace

leaving doubt behind, without a trace

Only the here and now exists

lost in my lover's wanting kiss

*

All hidden in a sigh
