With cinched waists and jarred backs-- a trickle down my eye, carving out my lips. My tongue. My spine. Your hands-- the rough carpenter of longing. I crave to find your center-- the point of equilibrium where two words meet and love, and writhe and conquer.
All of me is vulnerable and molten and yours.
Yours is something different, different from mine, from his. His is more. His is power. Is Glory. Is light and strength and Yours.
And what's more? Is mine. Is our breath. Our metronome and the syncopated rocking of your arms and the bed frame. Just left of center. Just right on target.
