The numbness from yesterday went to my legs.
We have danced a bit too much, I figure.
I like the soreness. It keeps my heart warm.
You get a glimpse of my curls
take a handful of them, brushing the slightest.
I see your eyes have a different shade.
They are not as dark as yesterday.
You sense my attention, and your gaze turns even ligther.
I take note, liking the contrast.
A shadow of a feeling can be felt in your touch
soft and calm, while you caress my face.
I forgot how last night happened
and I don't mind.
I like the results, even if problematic,
just having you before me is enough for now.
Would it be enough tomorrow?
In about a thousand more days from now?
Would you look forward to that?
To us being tangled like this again, under silk?
I have an answer in my lips
but my insides still process it.
It's not much, but it's enough to be a bit painful
In the long run, after the thousand suns together.
You don't seem that conflicted
and I can tell your resolution is the same.
Why? Just looking at you right now,
adoring in your gaze, as if I was special.
Why, I feel so honored already..
The sun in my skin, vibrant, wakes me up entirely.
Your smile, so radiant, could be mistaken for it right now.
..So, so honored...
