I want you to
Press your fingers so
Hard into my flesh that
I can feel you there
Weeks after you've left.
Let me hear you beg forgiveness
With your tongue, but not your
Voice,
Until all you can utter are
Groans;
You know, I
Had you all along.
Come,
Collapse into me;
We can connect our hips
And our minds until
Shudders subside and the
Morning steals soft kisses
With sleep.
Then lips, smoothed raw with
Exertion,
Will no longer cry out for more,
Because we are,
Finally,
Whole.

I want you to
Press your fingers so
Hard into my flesh that
I can feel you there
Weeks after you've left.
Let me hear you beg forgiveness
With your tongue, but not your
Voice,
Until all you can utter are
Groans;
You know, I
Had you all along.
Come,
Collapse into me;
We can connect our hips
And our minds until
Shudders subside and the
Morning steals soft kisses
With sleep.
Then lips, smoothed raw with
Exertion,
Will no longer cry out for more,
Because we are,
Finally,
Whole.
