Peridot

That night I kissed you for the first time.

How soft you lips were, the softest I had kissed.

How soft your golden skin was.

How soft your ever so round gray trimmed eyes were.

The way you sat down onto my lap, like a descending piece of paradise.

Falling into my hands, like you were meant to be.

The way you felt on me, soft and warm and firm and real.

I shook, I faltered, you ignored it.

You let me show you what I could do later on, but you let me be a fool that night.

You let me love you and trusted enough to let yourself be pleased.
