How does this all fit together?

By steuss

You press into my lips with each breath,
Tighten your grip on my shoulders with each kiss,
And compress your hips into mine;
I remember your smile and eyes.

Your laughter resonates in my mind,
And your thoughts repair damaged cells.
Echoing pleasure infuses my body;
You lay in my lap, next to me, and with me.

My world twists with your words,
And your intent irradiates my thoughts.

I know I define my future,
But will you respond to mine?
Answer with resonance?
Or will discord destroy me in
Feedback?

    I love the first stanza, so sensual in the way it leaves it to the imagination. And the way it ends in such uncertainty. Muchly enjoyed.
