A Taste of You

by Paiger   Jan 21, 2009


When I think of you my heart jumps
my stomach drops
A shiver runs through me

Your lips intrigue me,
I can not help but wonder
what they would feel like upon mine

Your hands are a temptation
mine cannot resist,
I just wish to hold them
and all will be right with my heart

Your eyes dazzle me
the light I see when they lock with mine
no other gaze gives me that feeling

Your voice, no matter the words
makes my heart flutter
and my eyes sparkle in delight

You are my fuel,
my addiction,
my inspiration,
my fantasy

This love can not be calmed
but I will disguise it as friendship
until it can be unveiled
when we have decided it is safe

I understand how fragile it may be
and I will protect it until I am strong enough
to keep this love sheltered, while it flourishes

but before then,
I must have one taste,
to keep me holding on,
so I know it is as amazing as we imagine
that it is worth the wait

    Good Poem. I feel that I can relate to a lot of it, there are parts where you know it's seen through a woman's eyes as a lot of guys don't get that feeling.

    Your eyes dazzle me
    the light I see when they lock with mine
    no other gaze gives me that feeling

    I've really enjoyed it and felt that the story that is told through this poem is one that many can relate to or even rebutt with their own story.

    It's one that really relates to the poem. I enjoyed the flow of, Up, down, Up, down it's nice and felt that it complimented the poem really well.

    unsure about the ending, feel it could have had a stronger ending, but that is one area I'm always picky about no matter who writes it.

    wonderful job.

    Okay, here i go.

    When I think of you my heart jumps
    my stomach drops
    A shiver runs through me
    ^^ This feeling is like no other. Love does funny things to not only our minds, but our bodies as well. It actually feels like our stomach drops.. and your heart skips a beat. Cute. :)

    Your lips intrigue me,
    I can not help but wonder
    what they would feel like upon mine
    ^^ This was an adorable stanza, good word choice i felt. We often let our minds drift off, wondering all these sorts of things. :]

    Your hands are a temptation
    my hands cannot resist,
    I just wish to hold them
    and all will be right with my heart
    ^^ how sweet. Just by holding his hand, your heart will be whole kind of thing. Very sweet and nicely penned.

    Your eyes dazzle me
    the light I see when they lock with mine
    no other gaze gives me that feeling
    ^^ interesting stanza, its true, when two peoples eyes meet they are in love, that feeling is like no other. You described that very well.

    Your voice, no matter the words
    makes my heart flutter
    and my eyes sparkle in delight
    ^^ Also very well done. it really shows how clclose you are to him.. waiting on his words, regardless of what they are.

    You are my fuel,
    my addiction,
    my inspiration,
    my fantasy
    ^^ i like the originality of 'fuel' that is very clever i think. Well done.

    This love can not be calmed
    but I will disguise it as friendship
    until it can be unveiled
    when we have decided it is safe
    ^^ This shows maturity i think, that you are willing to disguise your love for him, until it can work out. I really liked that idea, so many people dont care about that and i think that ruins a lot of relationships.

    I understand how fragile it may be
    and I will protect it until I am strong enough
    to keep this love sheltered, while it flourishes
    ^^ I really like the word flourished. Especially when talking about love, i think it just shows what love can really do.. it can flourish :)

    but before then,
    I must have one taste,
    to keep me holding on,
    so I know it is as amazing as we imagine
    that it is worth it
    ^^ just one taste, will keep you coming back for more, as they say. Nicely worded.

    Overall, a great poem, sorry for my rambling :]
    The flow was good and i really enjoyed reading it.
    5/5
