Wanderlust Consummated

He.

Happenstance,

a romance found

when a boy who paid

attention to my circumstance

took a chance.

when plans. . .

arranged for his first trip,

began —

stripped bare, dripping

raw intensity.

tip-teasing then lunged in,,

like a sponge I soaked

up his warmth, sweat

from his storm of energy

with each thrust,

he'd take a deeper claim

inside me.

he filled me with

his wanderlust.

gave me fulfillment,

briefly, relief from grief,

revived me,

a taste of new life,

never time wasted.

a love gained —

for me, will remain

always.
