Breathing hard,
we swam in the ocean of one skin
bodies hot,
flesh aflush
as you fall beside me
feigning to be tired.
I close my eyes
and think about the beach at twilight,
if it will be you or the moon
walking alongside me there
within the decrepitudes
of waning one night
stands your inconsequential
manhood...
As our Friday night breathing
Slows to a silence of regret,
you get up to towel down;
While I allow your power to dry on me.
Still, you come and wipe away our ***
as you kiss each place
where you had landed
yet you never consider
my lips...
