I still Feel, even Afterwards

Afterwards,
is a quiet time,
a time for reflecting upon
what has happened
between us,
yesterday,
before you left;
I still feel the sensations

of our love-making;

I still feel my desires

of laying beside you,

holding you close,

feeling the touch of your

nakedness against mine;

I can still feel

the kiss of your lips

upon my chest,

my nipples,

and your tongue

teasing its way around;

I can still feel your breasts

moving across my chest,

and my manhood;

I can still feel

the passion,

the excitement,

of your seduction,

and would it be the same

without you.
