Passion Poems

My soul belongs to you,

to you and you alone.

My heart beats for you,

for you and you alone.

My body reacts to you,

to you and you alone.

Why do you tease me so?

The torture you put me through.

Sweet pain, sweet pleasure.



You scorch with a look,

you singe me when you are near,

you scald me with your touch.

You make me tremble,

you make me quake.

I long for our next time together.

Why must we continue to wait?

The passion I feel for you.

Oh madness, oh ecstasy.

This poem is a little uneven, but with a few edits, it could partake of greatness. The first stanza is perfect, and the last two lines of the second stanza create a very dramatic conclusion. What is uneven is the verbs of the second stanza that are so pain-fraught. Its really just in those first three lines of the second stanza. Touch those up a bit, and you will have a highly elegant expression of the most intense longing.
