[Poem] Soul Searching

Sweetheart,

When I asked you

To search my soul,

I did not mean

For you to dig

Beneath my dress,

To reach depths

Wrapped around desire.

You've touched my bosom,

Felt the heart

Beating to your rhythm.

You've stolen my breath,

And turned the still night,

Alive.

I tremble

When your skin meets mine.

Your wine outlines my form,

As your tongue trails softly

Lolling in spots

I never knew could react

Like this.

Your eyes burn mine,

And you say that I am

A female with a man's mind.

But that's because,

You have been trapped inside

For far too long.

Living in my head,

Like songs with unfinished tunes,

Like winds without colors,

Like a king with no morals,

Minding my thoughts.

I close my legs,

And snap my mind shut,

Carrying a shattered heart

To the ajar door,

Doing a tangle with you,

On who gets out first.

I need closure,

From this sinful exposure.
