lovely - please pay me a visit
already it feels like I have
traveled your body, and how
innocently it happened
to have you so close
using my hands to release
knots in muscles not of steel
weights but shovels and dirt,
your veins carry me
the rain is calling you to me
fear not my intensity
it is simply a part of me
and lesser men did not feel
it worth the possibility of
burn or being consumed wholly
these are risks
not intentions
so much older than your years
if you continue to sit beside me
and smile, I cannot be
accountable for my actions
it has been so long, handsome
and I have learned my lessons well
carefully waiting and now
I know it’s good because of the fear
- I have something to lose
but this is not haphazard
and I have a few tricks up my sleeve
breathe easy, the others are friends,
a fleeting physical amusement – we’re all
well aware I didn’t wait this long
only for a smile
but it is beautiful, because
yours makes me happier and more
satisfied then their methodical
embraces.
and if that is the case
…aren’t you curious?
