I like this one - the longing, the needing is so well expressed. I like the play on the title - I'm presuming the beloved is no longer there and there is a little bit of fantasy going on. Love the 'late in the breathing hours' line - also the 'bloods rhythm drowned' idea. I think it is an excellent idea to share earlier work - after all, there is quite a turnover on here. I might do the same myself when I hit a dry spell. x

Love it.
I think 'pulses' - but I'd move it to the next line.

I missed the innuendo in the title at first glance.I like "late in the breathing hours" a lot. You could lose "now" from 2nd line.
I can't decide which is "correct" -Through my fingertips pulses or pulse?

i remember this well, cynthia.. perhaps it's something a few of us should do root back into our past.. mine are mostly crap, (earlier stuff) so perhaps not on my case, but it's a nice idea.. x

I really love this, Cynthia, and don't feel it needs elucidating at all! I'm glad you decided to share it with us again, being comparatively new to WOL. x

Cynthia, you're very kind to me. Most of the poems I've whacked on this site I've had published or published myself.
Feedback is great. I submit so many coz I get bored too easy.
I myself don't give many comments coz I don't know much about poems or poetry and am no critic.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.xx

This is the very first poem that I shared with WOL. I'm feeling nostalgic today, remembering so many comments which readers have shared.
