Off For So Long

Your body is a vacation, the perfect

spot to getaway.

Over the mound of your thigh the sun is

high & the fun has yet to begin.

I love how your skin feels between my hands.

How small you make everything around feel.

I apologize for putting you off for so long.

A year or two from now, I won't regret

how fast I packed my bag & left to

come visit.

A year or two from now, I'll tell everyone my favorite place to vacate.

How easy the language was to learn,

To bathe in the sun of your smile &

splash in the ocean of your body.

The weather is always perfect,

The adventures that await beneath your dress.

I apologize for putting you off for so

long.

A year or two from now, I'll still remember the smell of fresh peaches,

Served in thick nectar.

Compliments of being the perfect guest, the first to check in &

the last to leave.

Still viewing the sights, things that'll

last twenty years from now, without

hesitation or worry.

The only thing left to unpack is you

& Memories of you
