He Will Not Lose Her This Time (FL)
He gazed at her face
In awe of her anthropomorphic beauty
He wants to surrender to her savagely
Come
Migrate your lips my way
Even if itβs just to devour
I want your mouth on me
He trembles
Skin tightens
More beast than human
Less beauty
More everything else
She is a dance floor
Splinter scuffed
He is so much sandpaper passion
That she might actually be smooth again
The way she howls scares him
The wearing down to perfect
Is painful
They both want something they canβt have
But press harder to find it
Teeth gnashing a ****** river
Her scars are ****
Battle bruises from lovers who have lost
He will not lose her this time
He will not lose
He wakes naked
Covered in earth
And the scent of her lingers
Something damp and warm on his mouth
He will not lose her this time
Not again
First stanza donated by Jennifer Smith.
