sensuous

it's the way my eyes jump wide with sensuous surprise as you make your way inside, the way we multiply and divide each other's primes with each fingertipped prick running from leg to chest to face to neck and back again. nails writing backs like desperate pens carving sinful poetry into skin. soon like trees in the wind we take the appearance of motion by our own volition I watch with devotion your pursed lips slip to reveal a mouth half open in no longer candid delight. brain signals lungs gasping for more of your air as i comb my shaking fingers through your hair, we collapse by natural chemical highs and with each breath recognize, we are indeed alive
