lip gloss

I look to the moment when I see you smile

I feel the energy when I sit beside you

I tie my tongue in my mind

the knots like clots

stop my thoughts

impaling me on the sword of desire

the fear of rejection freezing to ice

the lips that await

as you apply appeal

so tender, so moist

their touch will surely thaw

my tongue you will draw

into the warmth

exploding the sensors

adding fuel to our fire

yes! decimate me

send me to shreds

reform me then melt me

that I may ooze forth to blend

within you once again
