Roughly Mine

That weightless silence and I hold my breath
Lower lip glistening like a ripe honeyed date
A handful of your hair,
The warmth as you exhale
An eyelash falls, sends me over the edge.

My lips meet yours, a bit frantic and cruel
Your clothes melt away, they're nothing but dew
I reach deep in my lair
Your moan breaks like a roar
Villainous flash at the end of the storm.

Fingertips glide over your skin like mist,
A map drawn with sweat now shows were I've been
Illicit confession
In invisible ink
Tells all you belong, to no one but me.
