cool emerald bursts upon my lips tongue lolling, dog panting twisting into purrs and moans the baker’s hands knead white dough adding yeast and sugar, as required it’s chocolate and caramel strawberries and whipped cream raw black earth and the rain there’s crashing waves on the briny shore and the precise, measured lines swollen lids […]
my fingertips trace the curves of my flesh once again I crave you wishing they were your hands not mine that your body was pressed against my own my flowing swells and dips matching, moving perfectly in sync with yours fitting perfectly that you were here to love on me your lips tracing whispers along […]
