Lesbian Poetry

The First Time

I want to shout it to the highest hills,
And let it echo down to the deepest valley,
For all to see and know this feeling that I hold in my heart,
I'm in love, for the first time in my life,
Nothing has ever been so clear and true to me,

Her eyes, so pure and honest,
Seem to reflect my feelings and reassure my hesitations,
Her lips, tender and sweet,
Touch mine and all is lost,
Her arms, strong and comforting,
Protect me from the fears that overwhelm my mind,
Her touch, gentle as a feather,
Swallows my soul entirely,
Her smile, genuine and sincere,
Absolutely breathtaking,
I love everything about her,
The way her face appears every time I close my eyes,
How her scent lingers in the room when she's gone,
Her laugh echoing in my mind,
The way her eyes crinkle up when she smiles,
I love her,
What I would do for just one kiss of her lips,
One touch of her smooth skin,
One breath of her perfume,
One glance into those beautiful blue-green eyes,
Just to hear one single soft spoken word escape her mouth,
God, I would do anything for her,

To be without her, would be pure torture,
My heart would stop beating,
My lungs would no longer breathe,
My body would feel no touch,
My eyes would see nothing,
She completes me,

I never knew I could feel like this,
I'm scared and thrilled by all of it,
I've never needed anyone like this before,
As every day goes by I love more about her,
I want to be with her forever,
To give myself to her completely,
To love her with all my heart,
I adore her, Admire her,
Need her, Crave her,
Respect her, Desire her,
Oh God, how I love her.
