Intimacy At Its Finest

I crave this amazing connection

When you think of Intimacy

I’m guessing you think sex,

While you wouldn’t be wrong

I crave what comes next.

***

Intimacy is letting someone in

To nestle deep in your heart,

It’s whispering late at night

Making eye gazing an art.

***

Intimacy is crying together

Honouring each other’s tears,

It’s talking about your pain

And sharing all your fears.

***

Intimacy is sharing life stories

Talking about growing up,

Going places that remind you

Of your past hiccups.

***

Intimacy is exchanging energy

Feeling the other without touch,

Being in tune to each other

Knowing their moods as such.

***

Intimacy is baring your Soul

Even when you are so afraid,

Knowing it will be protected

With your heart on display.

About the Creator

Colleen Millsteed

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.
