so it would seem that we have both been yearning, the eager entanglement of our loose limbs leaves me just a little drunk, forgive me for my clumsy fingers & breathless gasps. i am dizzy with the weight of your lips, kissing me tongue-deep, awash in your scent & splendor. i cannot get enough of you, now that you dared tell me you loved me beneath the starry-eyed blanket of nightfall, clasped in your radiant warmth & body heat, while the wild things sang. here, intertwined within a mess of quilts, we are learning each other’s flawed perfection. i do not apologize for my soft stomach or the sea of scars laddering my legs, & you breathe that i am beautiful. there is no cocktail of chemicals beating through my blood tonight, only the weight of your body on my body & the poetry of us.
