#taste poems on Hello Poetry

Nightfall covers the world as we’re sitting together.
I feel your warm hand touch mines, smiling at me.
So I smile back, leaning closer towards you.
And for the first time-I close my eyes & begin to taste your pure natural flavor.
This simple kiss is a sentimental connection, sharing this endless moment.
Feeling the sensation of your lips across mine causes my nerves to spark.
Chasing down this liquid lighting, activating each other’s tastebuds-one by one.
Heavy breathing, heart racing
Inhale-Exhale...
Only to reopen our eyes, gaze at your face, & embrace this passionate moment.

Sensitivity (pt.3)

You flew through me as I feel you coast on my skin
Letting the hairs on my arm stand as you send excitement through my body.
We touch
One body to another
Lips introduced
A tasteful kiss
Causing an immense impact
Feeling the connection
Collecting samples
Of one’s directions
Nerves activated
Excitement giving me goosebumps

Sensitivity (pt.4)

Lay your head on my chest & rest.
In one ear
Hear the waves of my heart beating faster for you.
In the other ear
Listen to the elements of sound all around us singing.
Crickets are chirping
R&B music is bumping
All of this energy flows through a melody,
As our definitive love grows together through faith & clarity.

Sensitivity(pt.5)

Rubbing your shoulders
While stroking your curly hair,
Your cherry kiwi scent
has me walking on thin air.
I softly push up against you,
The sweet melanin skin
Letting you feel me as I feel you
As a chuckle comes out and I begin to grin.
Happy to be your Companion
My life, my half, my best friend.
Because love tonight has been delightful
I don’t want this to end

what you’d see if you couldn’t see

to be the person of your dreams
to be less a body and more an idea
to be an unlit cigarette kissing your lips
the lavender in your coffee and the aftertaste in your mouth
your Malibu sunsets in a 70’s Mercedes
what if love is trying to break apart the barrier between what you see and what you feel
what if you close your eyes and you find yourself reaching out for me
I dream of what you’d see in me if you couldn’t see me at all

Taste

I drink alcohol to soothe my soul
To cleanse and numb my broken mind
I drink for the buzz
To see what new reaches I can find
It’s scary in my head when I’m sad
When I’m throwing up that poison
I can’t cry for mom and dad
The pain is far too great
I love the tingle
But the taste, I hate

Sweet

What a travesty it is
To have luscious honey
Dripping from your lips
Only to never know
How sweet it tastes

Your words are beautiful, but you don't see that you are beautiful and that is what it's like to lose yourself.
