That Afterwards Feeling

Neville

That Afterwards Feeling

 

Right here

and now,

how I ache

for that

afterwards

feeling ..

That post

love making,

easy

just being

here

and now

with you,

kind

of feeling ..

The kind

you

might read

about in

posh

magazines ..

Or after

having a

full English

breakfast ..

And

then maybe

just sipping

a few

cold beers

on a balcony ..

Or what

about that

last day

of school,

kind of feeling ..

Like falling

in love

all over again ..

Then

there’s that

almost awake,

part asleep

kind of feeling ..

And you find

without

so much as

looking

a fiver you

knew that you

had in

a pocket ..

But you could

not locate

it until

the very same

moment

you felt that

afterwards

feeling again ..

        A good write N, but as for me -
        I never even get the 'before' feeling with KP. And as for any bodily contact with her - bleeuurggh! Well, would we kiss a trout?! lol.

        • Neville



          I can see a law suite heading your way before too long ..

          • orchidee

            Fido advises against anything 'conjugal' for KP and I.

            Love the poem love the honest admittance. As an aside , the only English girl I dated was all excited to make me breakfast and it ended up being just beans and toast and eggs and I started looking around waiting for the what I thought was a certain to come punchline and when noticed her feelings got hurt and I was forever denied more English
            β€œDessert”!

            • Neville

                      All those beautiful endorphins released to make "that afterwards feeling" are quite similar to what I feel now after reading your poem. Great job, N!

                          For those who have not experienced That Afterwards Feeling, will positively exhale after reading these mesmerizing words.
