Naked

You materialized at my place
around 2'o'clock in the afternoon
we chatted on my couch
with Pandora in the background

It's still crazy how

I double-check my

gear, ponytail

and cologne before you get there

We sat kinda like strangers at first...
then you leaned over and
cuddled under my arm

We were talking
about something that
happened earlier
but the positive energy of now
was causing us to forgot the negative energy of then

I felt my
conscious
ease into a kiss

Your mouth
calmed
the discourse

And we found
resolution
in an embrace

I ended up asking
if maybe, one day,
maybe we could
um move in

You said
how nice that would be
and maybe in 6 months we could um
maybe move in

you told me
how nice and "handsome"
I looked and I felt
school boyish

then you told me
how much you needed me
and that's when
I felt masculine
and stroked your thighs
as you practically were on my lap
kissing me and stroking my ego

I felt
helpless
as you pressed against me
kissing me deeply
you could have taken my house, car, and everything I owned
and I would have said "ok"

you could have asked
me to walk to Africa with you

and I would have said "when do we leave?"

you could have asked

me to cook you a seven course meal

and I would have said "what would you like?"

although I wanted food

our intimacy was the nurishment I desired

and this was just the kissing...

you strip me

down

bare

to my soul

when you love me

and leave me

naked

twisted in my sheets

still feeling your touch

somewhere between masculine and feminine

you leave me human
