His restraint is
So subtle
Yet
So subversive
That it barely
Serves to
Keep me
Bed borne
Supine
Anchored
Grounded
Rooted

But that's my soul just there
Greeting the chandelier
Shamelessly flirting amongst
Dangerous crystals
Illuminated and bedazzled

"Just there"

Those two words "made" this for me. So casual, yet so revealing. ~Imp

Good balance and movement

I enjoyed the balance of this poem, the short lines slowing the reading through the first half and then the sudden leap with the soul into the chandelier. Good images there, and a good control of diction that nicely expresses both the actions and the emotions. Thanks for a pleasant read.

there is a delicate restraint shown here

the subtlety within the poem is enhanced by your subtle wording. Wonderful poem...

Well Written!

An excellent example of a well written erotic poem. You don't have to be graphic to be sexy. This poem is a good step above the normal Lit. erotic offering.

Nicely done - Thank you.
