You and me
We can’t keep our hands off each other
Our bodies intertwined, dancing as one
As we stumble on to the bed together
You kiss me on my neck, and I smell your cheap cologne
Notes of sandalwood and cedar brush my face
As your lips travel, making love to every part of my body
Your lips are cold to the touch, sending chills down my spine
And I’m wondering what kind of magic this is
Our clothes flew off and now we can finally see
What we were both hiding underneath
Our lips greeted each other like long lost lovers
As you crawled your way inside me
And all I could think is that you were not mine
You were not the person I woke up to this morning
With his morning breath lingering in my mouth  
You were not the person I made coffee for this morning
Because he only loves the way I make it  
You were not the person I said goodbye to this morning
Because I loved him too much not to
You were an impulse, an itch I needed to scratch
That I realize is no longer there
Lust consumed me because I thought
My love was never enough and that
You were the only thing that could satiate me
I’m lying in this bed full of regrets
And I question how I got here
I know he will never love me the same
Because now my lips belong to more than one
Regret is stronger than gratitude
