Romantic Poetry by Modern Poets

   

At Your Pleasure

Your soft, warm skin responds to the touch of my fingertips;
  eyes widen and lips swell in anticipation.
Knowing that you love my touch just as I desire your closeness
  is an end in itself, my raison d’etre.

Lifting you in my arms, holding your lithe form close,
  I am a man.
You look into my eyes and kiss me back ...
I understand the true joy of a couple in love.

Bringing you happiness fills my heart,
  increases my need to share our secrets and intimate pleasures.
Together or apart, near or far ...
  know that I love the essence that is you.
