Going Straight

I wish that you would not admit So easily and freely That since we are legitimate My presence makes you queasy. As we dug our sinful crater Out of burnt and broken hearts, You felt like we were greater Than the sum of both our parts. With a look over the shoulder Those kisses felt pyretic, But when coals ceased to smoulder Said kisses felt emetic.
