It was with the first swivel
of your pefect hips
that I knew the stories were true.
Deft knowledge
of where and when and how.
You moved our bodies,
closed your eyes.
That's what captured me.
We escape together
Our lips met, but not moving
Just feeling your breath
hot
now on my stomach.
I feel your fingers running over
What you hope is a seed
But when it doesn't grow,
you stand up and leave.
You have blurred
happy
with your undoing
Punishing yourself for the passion
you feel as you hands press
Angrily to my flesh
You want to be loved
but are afraid to.
You keep your trust
locked in a glass box.
Tonight after we give ourselves
upside down on a white duvet
stay a while.
I won't take without asking,
won't confirm your fears
that you are unloveable.
Please leave me a key.
