In Love

In Love

When we parted I inhaled
and every breath tasted of you,
every thought filled me full of your beauty.
My spirit soared to the sky,
my soul lifted to the heavens
as my contentment swelled this beating,
thankful heart,
and the warmest of smiles
spread across my aching lips
and flooded my loins with desire.

The love sensations you describe are vividly stated & I believe these are universal feelings for being "in love" . . . but I wonder how much is self-intoxication & how much is related to the hard work of loving another person? As you can tell, I'm not a fan of head-spinning love msgs (which you do very well) . . . I like it more when love is shown more realistically . . . tough & also soft (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

It's sad but, I couldn't help but smile at the positivity of this poem. Well written.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Thank you again FKK

In love indeed. I know that feeling.
When you are in love and everything around seems never to exist anymore. Time of one way thought, running through the imagination of love effects.

It's a trap I guess but it worth getting trapped by the right one.

Lovely penned, Gabriel.

Beautiful images evoked. Great job!

This is very beautiful and sensual and I enjoyed it immensely. What I would give to find something like this on my pillow.

sounds like love to me,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This reads like a true love letter, written for a different time. Very beautiful. You need to hide this love note somewhere she can find it.

Bitten by the love bug indeed. All consuming thoughts. Not always a comfortable place to be when you can't focus on anything else. Fine free verse that conveys that heady state well.
