Up Close
Let's get up close,
in your face close,
against your body close,
but let's not make this personal.
I don't want you to JUST hold my hand.
I want your palm offered with a devious smile
and that match in your eyes to come to life,
stealing the oxygen in my lungs.
I don't JUST want a peck on the cheek
or a shy tongue darting between my chapped lips.
I want a kiss that sizzles forever
and cannot be cooled by water.
And I don't JUST want your arm around my waist.
I want an embrace that closes the time we spend apart.
A hug that whispers as your arms smother my spine.
Let's get close,
THIS close.
But let's not make it personal.
