"Exciting..."

"Exciting..."

A Poem by Chris
"

thought-full

"
So many WANT exciting... so few KNOW what it is...
"Exciting..."

Is exciting - wanting more
knowing less
touching
being touched
-thinking of touching or
just what?

Is it - new
or Old - with the Cap intended!
Is it finally finding
a real smile - inside
that leaks out on its own?

Is it the colors 
of the rainbow,
the flecks within eyes,
the sunshine caressing your skin,
the tastes of tomorrows
you only dreamed of before?

Is exciting having
a tomorrow afterall?
A time or experience
you can have and share,
a reason to share at all?

You excite me you know -
careful, I bite.

When someone says "I love You" .. THAT'S exciting .. Especially if I'm not expecting it ..

Not much left to get excited over these days .. except waking up in the morning, I guess.
And sometimes that's actually a let down.

Just me.

An interesting and thoughtful read.
Many people flit in and out, thinking the initial chemistry is the exciting part... sad, because when it is really about to get exciting is when people get scared and run... :)
Just a thought

yes, they do that...
Flows, this one... trickles into the soul and, yes, excites.

Pure grace and exhilaration.

I like the thoughts
You know, I never thought about this before ! What a great poem - giving me reason to actually think about what I want and why I want it ! What is "exciting" to me? Well I think I agree with your stanza :

"Is exciting having
a tomorrow afterall?
A time or experience
you can have and share,
a reason to share at all?"

this is an enjoyable write, Chris ! Justine :)

so much is unthought...
Very cool and exciting my friend. I'll keep that last line in mind. It is however nice to have those tomorrows to relive the prior days with that special someone.
