with all my senses, i love.
can you feel it?
her heart that beats under your hand
the vibrations of each rhythm that ripples
through your skin
like fire
a cold fire that burns you
even as you shiver at the touch
can you see it?
the way her eyes change
as they meet yours
turning dark with intensity
calling out to you
and like gravity, pulling in
reeling you in
until you can see the unborn stars
she hides within them
and how they burst to life
with each touch
with each move
with each word that rolls off your
tongue
can you smell it?
the layer of watermelon and
a hint of lilac scent that clings you,
echoes of her touches
the dizzying scents that rush into
into your nostrils
how your throat suddenly gets dry
your mouth, drier
can you taste it?
her breath that you inhale
intoxicating kisses
so sweet
melting on your tongue
air turning to liquid in your mouth
filling it up with
a thick gooey sugary fluid that
drips into your throat
disappearing down your stomach
as you gasp for more of her breath
so sweet and intoxicating
tempting
can you hear it?
her silence,
the presence of everything
-------
can you feel it?
her frozen heart
that stays still under your touch
can you see it?
the eyes she hides behind her eyelids
unfocused hollow empty
even, with each touch
with each move
with each desperate cry that
spills off your tongue
can you smell it?
the layer of watermelon and
a hint of lilac scent clung to you
tainted by
rotting watermelons
and withering lilacs
untouched by her
the putrid smell that overflows you
so strong
forcing tears from your eyes
can you taste it?
her last kiss
her breath melting on your tongue
the crimson liquid filling your mouth
bitter sour and metallic
tears running down your cheeks
salty and harsh
can you hear it?
her death,
absence of everything
