A poem

your breath shivers up my nape, a pleasure instant and sweet

as I breathe in the orange vanilla of your new perfume

the thumpa thumpa race of your heartbeat filling me with heat

your white chocolate hand, pale and perfect against my caramel arm

to savor the tang of your whiskey tongue as our mouths finally meet

love poems
