Cruel Jester

I sit here


and watch you,


while I slowly


slip


into insanity.


 


My mind eases back


from the tensions


of life


and I float


off into fantasy.


 


My lips long


to press


against yours.


I remember


nothing more


in life


that touched me


so deeply,


as the sweetness


of your kisses.


 


I feel your soft


and plump lips


pressing against


mine.


 


I see the


hypnotic beauty


in your eyes


as they draw me in


to capture my soul.


Brown orbs


that seem


bottomless in depth


and somehow enchant


every fiber of my being.


 


I feel you


in my arms


and the longing


for the sensation


drives me insane.


 


I feel the


incredible softness


and satiny smoothness


of your skin


as I touch


my lips


to your throat


and neck, kissing


your shoulders


and working down


your chest.


 


Oh, my GOD.


 


I love kissing you.


 


It is


the happiest


I have ever felt.


Ah, but the memories


of times spent


in your arms


and basking


in the warm glow


of your love.


 


Your lips call


to mine,


they beckon me


closer


and tantalize me.


I love their taste,


their feel,


the intoxication


of body and soul


that they cause.


 


I dream of holding you


in my arms


and kissing


the hours away.


 


I yearn for


the peace of being


enfolded in the blanket


of your love.


 


I feel,


most of the time;


that I shan’t


be able to


draw another breath,


from sheer need


of being with you.


 


I can feel


your delicate skin


sliding under my hands


as I caress you.


 


I hear your breath


on my shoulder


as I make love to you.


 


I see the light in your eyes.


 


I believe,


it is that light


I miss the most.


 


Too little.


 


Too late.


 


Why must life be


such a cruel jester.

Man ... I haven't kissed the hours away since I was in my twenties. Seems now-a-days all you have time for is a coupla slobbery ones and a couple pecks each day. You are a romantic Jeff my man, and this write proves it.
