Touch You

How could I not

touch you?

For all the breath

you have stolen,

I still wish

to breathe into you.

Such beauty before me,

so dark and yet light.

These feelings brim

and I must reciprocate.

Author's Note

Yet another poem in a series of love poems.

I like your abstract writing style.
You articulate the obvious so well as you tenderly withdraw emotions from your readers.
Bravo!

"for all the breath you have stolen, i still wish to breathe into you." these are the words which captivated me and touched parts of my memory which i will always treasure. a gentle and exquisite write.

Wow can I relate to this... We all know how I love the short powerful poems and this one may be short but it says so much. How could I not touch you? That line alone is just so strong with emotions. Great job E.V.

wonderful work

For all the breath
you have stolen,
I still wish
to breathe into you.

always tastes better the second time around, for what is a kiss if not second hand breaths already warmed by our lovers bodies.
Beautiful thought and perfectly expressed, keep em' coming
