She’d had sex
mischievous fun
closeness and release
not always that good
things done before
not always wanted
expected to give in
This one smiles
looks into her eyes
knows where to touch
for how long and let go
catches her with silence
asks nothing of her yet
she tells him everything
Things she didn’t see
he doesn’t tell yet shows
her body curved to his
no lead no follow bliss
how did she how did he
as if he knew she knew
they’d get to feel like this
Oh wow! This is LOVELY!

To quote Kim and Micky from 9½ weeks:
– How did you know I’d react like this?
– I saw myself in you.

Thank you, Diana – this a poem from a while ago which in its original form didn’t make into ‘Shorts – a take on poetry’ – but now reworked/extended it’s found its way into my next collection.
