I Crave Your Eyes, Your Laughter, Your Touch Poem by Emu Getachew

I Crave Your Eyes, Your Laughter, Your Touch

Rating: 4.3


I crave your eyes, your laughter, your touch
I crave the smile of your eyes
the warmth of your breath
the scent of your eyelids
and the kindness of your touch.

I crave the opening of your lips
the agreement between your smile and your tears
I crave, I crave the voice in your laughter
the melodies of your finger tips
and the dialect of your eyes.

I crave your eyes, your laughter, and your touch
without it, I am the sound of an empty journey
without it, i am the missing petals of spring gardens,
without it, i am the tears of winter clouds,
without it, i am a woman without her skin.

Its a lovely piece. Each word expressing the helplessness of loving and wanting the loved one close to you. Great writing. With best wishes....
