Impressions of Love

sugar crystals are licked like candy
the same as your sweet affections
your honey-laced lips
wrap softly upon my cheek
and i close my eyes
letting you kiss them too
i cannot refuse you or your taste
it is your grip that holds me here
but i have come to expect this
not resisting you or your hands
you have always rendered me still
and captured tender impressions of love
even when i shiver against the curse of cold
i feel the heat grow between us
as small heart cherries blossom
and wild pinks rise above the frozen ground
