america spoke
they want a new man in charge
is this when i leave?

the bewildered man
stumbles through his strict routine
say, cherchez la femme

i remember your scent
it stained my favorite place to kiss on your neck,
and just behind your ear where you always nervously tucked your hair

i remember your flavor
the way your lips tasted like hope,
and the sweet tang of licking you off of my fingers

i remember your touch
how your palms where smooth like silk but your knuckles were hard and cracked,
and how our bodies felt when your bare skin rubbed against mine

i remember your sound
the way your morning voice resonated like you smoked two packs a day,
and how your moans were like the cries of angels

i remember the sight of you
how freckles were sprinkled across your cheeks,
and when your hair fell around your face and over your shoulders you looked a lioness

you awoke all five of my senses,
and you won't soon be forgotten

the world can be cold
cruel, unforgiving, horrid
but sometimes there's warmth

right before you kiss
that fraction of a second
words cannot describe

mailing the letter
sealing love in envelopes
a kiss for a stamp

her hands exploring
every inch of my body
shivers wouldn't stop
