Longing for Intimate Recognition
This short lyric voice expresses a seeker’s yearning to know a beloved fully through sensory recognition. The speaker wants to identify the beloved by voice, scent, posture and small gestures, anticipating intimate moments of proximity and touch. The poem builds toward a private, joyful exchange in which a whispered request for "more" symbolizes craving for continued closeness rather than a single consummation. Read simply, it maps longing as a desire for sustained, reciprocal familiarity and the comfort of being unmistakably known by another.

Know the lift of your heel, the glide of your foot. Become familiar with the way you purse your lips then let them part just the slightest bit, when I lean in to your space and kiss you. I want to know the joy of how you whisper: "More".
