I Know
I know your face
I know the feel of your cheek
Beneath my palm
I know how far
I will need to lean up
In order to kiss your lips
I also know
That you will let me
Take the lead
That you will wait for me
To step into you
I know that your hands
Will find my hips
Holding me at a distance
Until you are sure
I am sure
And you feel
The invitation in my kiss
And you will wrap
Your arms around my waist
To pull me close
One hand finding
The small of my back
The other falling
Somewhere lower
To pull my body
Into yours
We fit together
Like puzzle pieces
I know

When it comes to love and lovers, few things are as magnificent--and desired--as knowing. This is beautiful. The poem and the tale it tells.
