I will explore every inch of you. I'll entangle the distance between your lips with the dance of my tongue. I'll count your ribs and locate your vertebrae with my lips. I'll smear my auric hands all over your body. I'll paint you like a poem and write you like a painting. I'll form nebulas on your back and study the origin of light in your eyes. I'll study the ontology of your laughter. This is what I promise you; not to love you, but learn all that you are.

I Promise You
I will explore every inch of you. I'll entangle the distance between your lips with the dance of my tongue. I'll count your ribs and locate your vertebrae with my lips. I'll smear my auric hands all over your body. I'll paint you like a poem and write you like a painting. I'll form nebulas on your back and study the origin of light in your eyes. I'll study the ontology of your laughter. This is what I promise you; not to love you, but learn all that you are.
