Touch of Passion

Passion drives the soul

Fingers whisper quiet across sensitive skin

Senses heightened to a point of disbelief

Tender torturous teasing

Encouraged by rapidly increased breathing

Hunger builds as blood warms

Heartbeats surge as lips graze softly

Eyes glaze yet burn with anticipation

Desires amplified by animalistic need

Hands grasping, groping, intertwining

Bodies collide with wild abandon

To satisfy a basic need

That culminates in a pure

Touch of Passion

First, I love the art you chose. It is lovely and the perfect compliment to your writing. Second, you know I love your poetry. This one is a little off for me. You used some great vocabulary, but I don't think you felt the words as you wrote them. It lacks your passion and your heart. I know you too well my sweet friend. It is an amazing poem, but I prefer the poems you write from your heart and soul. Hugs, Julie

This was written to be more of an expression of lust vs. love. When two people drive right past that soft tenderness to that full on uncontrolled desire to get it on. When the smoulder became a raging fire.
When passion drives every fiber in your being.

When you lose control of rational thought and all that's left is ......... Need.
Putting words together coherently isn't always easy at that point of time.

Loved your review... It gave me a perfect ace to define my thoughts on this piece.

Thank you so very much.
It is more a collection of thoughts and expressions when two people come together.

Love the flow of this piece and each line is fueled from the one before. Everyone has the basic need to fulfill desire. Sensual and passionate

Sometimes all it takes is the touch of another to ignite a passion that is all consuming. It's the one thing this world could use a little more of.

Beautiful graphic too, Trace!

The gentle touch of a lover can light such a fire it's hard to put out without a lot of moisture in the right places.
Thanks for the wonderful comments and compliments.

Very well. Really the touch of passion you show in your work is worth praising. The words you had chosen are also beautiful. Thank you for sharing. Keep writing.

I especially like the following part of the poem:
“Bodies collide with wild abandon

To satisfy a basic need

That culminates in a pure

Touch of Passion”
