SPEAK WITH ME

Teach me how to love you deeply… I want to… in every way… and I make this promise to you… I will.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Speak with me

Let me dance in the lucid waves of your thoughts

Understanding your deepest places

You have dreams, fears, desires, interests, and aspirations

Speak them to me… I will breathe mine into you as well…

 

Sit by me

May silence sing over us like autumn winds

Recognizing your sweet presence

We need the scent of each other to fill us and define us

Sit here beside me and be with me… just be with me…

 

Share with me

Give me gifts of chocolate covered smiles

Knowing your loving expressions

I’ll learn your loves as well, to give to you just because

Share with me those small joys that mean so much…

 

Serve by me

Our hands together making light work

Realizing we were meant to be us

I commit my hands and my back to help carry your load

Serve my needs and let me serve you every day…

 

Stroke me gently

Weave your fingers in mine like a French tapestry

Appreciating how our heat melts us into one

Sensuality fires passion, you always will be my one obsession

Stroke my skin, and let me learn to please you in every way…

 

Author's Note

Inspired by the book “The Five Love Languages” by Gary Chapman. He lists these as Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Receiving Gifts, Acts of Service, and Physical Touch. Each of us needs these in a relationship (given and received), though everyone uniquely requires a differing mix in order to feel most loved and accepted…

There was a time, long ago, that all five of these things
were found... then lost. Or, thrown away.
Each of these 5 things are expressed beautifully and I
felt the sensation of a tear well up... are these things
really possible? Can a man really love a woman like this
visa versa? I used to believe this to be true. Now, I find
that life is simply too cruel and at this age, it's simply
too late. Nothing is as it should be, nor ever shall be...
YET, this poem bleeds Hope!! Love it :)

A wonderful poem in every way .. seems there's almost everything here in your thoughts that a man can offer to a woman .. the flow of your words are like time drifting slowly, making unconditional promises ..

'May silence sing over us like autumn winds'

As always your poem is formatted superbly, beautifully ..

WOW!!! Fabulous Craig, your words filter through my mind and linger on my palette of images. Your style is unique, precious and oh so marketable my friend...Congratulations on a very intelligent and sensual write :-)

What an absolutely beautiful piece! Any relationship couldn't ask for more. I can almost see someone using this as their vows in a wedding ceremony. ('Cept maybe that last stanza. Very romantic, but not really appropriate for church. lol ) Well done; a great poem.
