Dormant Volcanoes

Dormant Volcanoes

Read me once
Like the anticipation
Of a first kiss

Falteringly, shyly,achingly
Slowly, sweetly,longingly
Feverishly,impatiently, insatiably
Passionately, sensually, wonderingly
Tenderly, gently, tentatively
Lovingly

And then perhaps I will exhale
Let out this pent up longing
Surging through the recesses
Vents of long dormant emotions
And need to write no more
