My hands clasped together Sitting on my lap A rose bud buried in my chest blooms in the morning sun Poking its head out I’ve never felt this before The sun kissed my toes Then began kissing up Up Up Up Up to my feet The sun had other mistresses But in this moment I was the warmest Up to my ankles I giggled and ****** my legs back in response My legs are ticklish in the sunlight Up to my calves My giggles slowed their pace I was settling in to the feeling of sunlight creeping up my body Up to my knees I was losing my humor This was very real At my thighs I made him stop I had never before felt that My rosebud seemed like a statue Frozen in time Holding its breath to see what would happen next He laughed A hearty laugh One that came from the belly and echoed out One that rattled my rib cage And soon I was laughing too Shaken by the vibrations of 2 laughters And as I looked down, I felt the warmth all over my body It was all over and it was magical And I wasn’t afraid anymore But just as soon as he had started He was gone And the sky became a dark grey And the sun didn’t come back out And the rosebud in my chest began to wilt and wither in the whipping wind But all I could do was keep my eyes on the sky Waiting for the sun that I knew wouldn’t return

my friend the sun
My hands clasped together Sitting on my lap A rose bud buried in my chest blooms in the morning sun Poking its head out I’ve never felt this before The sun kissed my toes Then began kissing up Up Up Up Up to my feet The sun had other mistresses But in this moment I was the warmest Up to my ankles I giggled and ****** my legs back in response My legs are ticklish in the sunlight Up to my calves My giggles slowed their pace I was settling in to the feeling of sunlight creeping up my body Up to my knees I was losing my humor This was very real At my thighs I made him stop I had never before felt that My rosebud seemed like a statue Frozen in time Holding its breath to see what would happen next He laughed A hearty laugh One that came from the belly and echoed out One that rattled my rib cage And soon I was laughing too Shaken by the vibrations of 2 laughters And as I looked down, I felt the warmth all over my body It was all over and it was magical And I wasn’t afraid anymore But just as soon as he had started He was gone And the sky became a dark grey And the sun didn’t come back out And the rosebud in my chest began to wilt and wither in the whipping wind But all I could do was keep my eyes on the sky Waiting for the sun that I knew wouldn’t return
