How about the eyes that found me, and lingered
within the radius of my stare, locking eye to eye,
unembarrassed by the moment?
Or, how about the smile that dented your cheeks,
breaking out like a new day, teeth white as the sun?
What of the hands that served coffee brewed
on my table, the aroma sweet like your scent,
floating in the air, your hair close to me?
Or that glaze in your skin, when my fingers slide
from your shoulder down to your fingers?
How about the warmth of your lips,
lingering, swirling, sniffing, sipping,
and I savoring them like fine wine?
Oh, your body so close to me,
I, selfishly consuming its heat!
