Kiss. When you kissed me, With my eyes still closed, I said to you: "I have never had a first kiss."
When I opened my eyes to see your reaction, You were gone. And I remembered.
Beds. Beds are dangerous, Life-threatening traps. The sheets: a barbed binding, Encasing and suffocating. The covers: A panic-soaked hug filled with hyperventilation. (Get off of me!) The pillow: rocky ground and spinal trouble.
Dreams. Dreams are non-existent nightmares. Burning houses and drowning lakes. Warm open night air in freezing water. Being locked inside a trunk. Fields of fireflies. Cicada's friction. You. Always you.
Cafe. Coffee reminds me of you. The sweet warmth of cinnamon. Cool refreshing milk. Bitter richness of coffee.
A subtle hint of scented lavender. A pinch of ***** chilli. Honey, a name as much as a flavor. Vanilla, pure.
****. Vulnerable. On display. Exposed.
I removed my clothes first, But you kept yours on.
