Words… are lost by touch; perhaps I am talking too much… that much is clear – a tongue testing its own fortune. The moment I beheld your visage, a weight settled upon my skin, while the fragrance of your skin dug tremors through my heart – a quiver igniting up to the nerves at my fingertips. Our hands met with a less than firm embrace – yet deep down, I yearned for a hug, to ascend the staircase of your neck and find sanctuary in the chamber of your lips. Like a swarm of bees drawn to a blossom, seeking the sweet nectar of connection – our fleeting moments together ignited thoughts of seizing the flower of time, “she’ll love me, she loves me now,” believing it’s merely a matter of time. I hear you summon my name; it resonates like a hymn of adoration – your celestial presence beckoning me into the realm of your words. And so, we embark once more, at the crossroads of language where I find myself either bereft of expression or talking too much … you know what, let’s abandon the chatter and kiss instead, for our hearts speak a language far more profound. I’ve been overthinking too much.

Overthinking much
