How It Feels

We fit together

Like puzzle pieces

I know the feel of your cheek

Beneath my palm

The colour of your eyes

Before they close

I know how far

I will need to tilt my head

In order to kiss your lips

And how your mouth will taste

Upon my tongue

I know I will sense

The hesitation in your breath

When you finally let go

And let your heart take hold

I also know

You will let me take the lead

That you will wait for me

To step into you

Your hands will find my hips

Holding me at a distance

Until you are sure of my intent

And when you feel the invitation in my kiss

Then and only then

Will you wrap your arms around my waist

To pull me close

One hand finding the small of my back

The other falling somewhere beneath

To pull my body into yours

Until we fit snugly together

The picture tells the story

And I already know

How it feels
