Kiss Me Like A Leaf (National Poetry Writing Month 2023 #8)   Leave a comment

Kiss me like a leaf 
Being kissed by morning dew.
Hold me with your gravity
As Jupiter holds its moons.
Crave me, need me, want me,
As a hammer wants for nails.
Hunt me with a passion,
Like a dog chasing its tail.
Sculpt me with caresses;
Be an artist to my clay.
Explore my every facet;
Be the guide who finds a way.
Help me pierce the silence
Like a shrill and high-pitched scream.
Let me live inside your head
Like a fondly cherished dream.
Just kiss me like a leaf
Being kissed by morning dew.
Oh please, darling, love me
As much as I love you.
