you touch me
beyond my skin
the way he use to

feeling your way past the obvious
searching for the hidden
coaxing pieces of heart
left walked upon
to brush themselves off
and find their way home

licking my edges slowly
melting the hardness
revealing the soft shell
of an inner beauty
in need of possession

i can't breathe
for air has escaped me
only to become captured
within your lips
breathing life back into me
with the words...
"It's okay..."

reality's obligations fading away
like sunsets kissing ocean waters

losing yourself

within my eyes

finding myself

within your grasp

strong hands grabbing locks
pulling the memory of them away
pushing the moment of us faster

intensely exploring
softness of fullness
not use to
pulling away from
too much to handle
"we can't," i say
but words get lost
somewhere between
a bedroom door
and throaty moans
