Compensating

I leave my name on my lips

just to remember that kiss

you gave me. Like a list,

we check off the thing we've missed

and finally, once we're finished,

we lay together, breathe in bliss,

the pure breath and mist

of a thousand stars raining down on us.

Eager, but unnoticeable, there's a twist

in your touch. A small unjust

uncertainty in your eyes, a twitch.

I erase your fears with my easing kiss.

Let my emotions surf over your body, in 

your mind and give me something quick.

I'm desperate for your touch. Push my thin skin

against yours. Pull my heart out so we'll be in unison.

It's a really lovely and beautiful poem. Romantic and very well written. Brilliant piece.
