Taken Easy

Can you see
The way my dress peeled off of me
And  how I fell into your arms?
Where you kissed my neck
And cradled my head
In the crook of your elbow?

Can you hear
The zip of your zipper,
The soft thump of clothes
Falling to the floor?
The soft sighs
As we moved as one
In the morning light?

Can you taste
The orange juice
And menthol cigarettes
That lingered on our mouths?
The flavors of the night before
Pouring through
Every bud on our tongues?

Can you smell
The fresh linens
Tangled between our legs?
The sweet scent of sweat
That beaded and trickled
Down your back?

Can you feel
The skin of my arm
Smooth and delicate
Rise beneath your touch?
The weight of you on top of me
Desire pushing at
The boundaries of your jeans?

Do you remember
That one morning
When I let you
Take me easy
And you left me
Loving nothing?

I agree with Shadow Princess. This was really good. It flows nicely and works well with having no defined rhyme scheme, which is really hard to do. The only thing I can say is that you don't have to capitalize every line. It's not necessary to do so. Try sticking to the rules of punctuation when keeping this in mind.

Other than that, great job! I can't wait to see some of your other works.

Wow...I really liked that. It captured my attention from the first line which is always good. I liked the way it flowed, also. It flowed perfectly. :-) Good job!

This is really nice! Your writing style's got a charm of it's own.

Thank you for reading my work! I'm glad you all enjoyed it! :)))
