Further provoking desire, lips barely brushing
 skin, as
gently I lean down, my cinnamon lipstick leading a certain marked trail 
along
his thigh. Instead of a hapless lover, a goddess of erotica frees 
herself from
inside of me, and in insurmountable contradiction leads me to the 
wanting more
of him. I have not touched him yet, as he expertly navigates his way 
down my
torso, at first drawing nothing but breath, but then pressing so hard 
into me,
leaving me in a hypnotic trance that cements to memory.
In the morning, he will leave one final 
abstract kiss painted
on my breast, and I will slip a door key into his pant's pocket as he 
takes a
shower. He will head to the metro, and I will smile, both of us will 
become
predictable. Feeling a bit light headed still from the wine and the 
heat, and
the consideration of what is still, yet to come. Leaning out my window, I
 let the rain fall on my face...

The faded fabric of my couch, a few pots of geraniums, I start to open a bottle of wine, but the cork is stuck, and I look at him, a dream I can never quite put into words, as I reach for him as if entering into another life. Several afternoons a week, the bed frame clanks against the wall, without hesitation in one swift gesture, each having reached completion, as we now lie in one another’s arms. The curtains billow, I wrap myself within them, as my smell of lavender stays saturated on his skin, and the taste of him, stays forever upon my lips.
