lie still awhile
darling
let your bones
rest
breath in
breathe out
repeat
as my fingertips
trace your lifelines
your body
the conductor
my hands
tingle with the charge
my lips graze your eyebrows
taking the furrow
my lips graze your cheek
tasting the tears of years past
my lips graze your chin
taking the stress
my lips graze your lips
tasting their passionate memories
i leave my mark
my fingerprints
along the outline
of your created form
the sensation of
cool skin
boiling blood
the reverberation of
pounding heart
ragged breath
my hands explore
every inch of your
transfixed anatomy
savoring
my fingers composing
the night song
against your
limbs
allowing your skin
to melt against mine
against my form
until
liberation is found
so
lie still awhile
darling
let your bones
rest
breathe out
breathe in
repeat
as my fingertips
trace your lifelines
