I'll not need to possess your kiss <br />and sequester it <br />in my soul space prematurely. <br /> <br />I'll not need to pick you up <br />and carry you across the threshold. <br /> <br />No urge here to possess you <br />even if I urgently feel the need <br />since that is only really possible voluntarily; <br />flowers only really open to sunshine <br />warmth and feelings, <br />and you are my best flower-lover. <br /> <br />I'll not urge you to excess beyond your reach <br />but wait for your natural desires to mature <br />and move toward me <br />ripened eyes <br />open and willing; <br />that way is best. <br /> <br />Love's Gem is clearest <br />when freely given. <br /> <br />Desire is fruit <br />best plucked not to early <br />preceded best by the patience <br />that true love brings. <br /> <br />If time is the secret ingredient <br />that love needs <br />then here are the years and moments <br />I am willing to concede. <br /> <br />So take from me what you need <br />freely given <br />and I will fill you up <br />slowly <br />in the way Love <br />makes possible <br />because love <br />and the desire to feel <br />is cherished and needed <br />married or single. <br /> <br />So if I hear your gentle cry <br />as we both relinquish <br />our virginities back once again <br />all would have been <br />worth the wait of pain and separation <br />as we contemplate <br />taking our vows again <br />re-united.<br /><br />Lonnie Hicks<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/virgin-love-always-blosoms/
