his slender fingertips,
his long wavy hair,
his mouth sucking my bottom lip—
The world spins, the stars shift,
and I can’t see anything except his smoky gray eyes gazing into mine.
You scare me,
whispers from my mouth across his.
Good, he breathes into me.
I need you to save me.

I’m lost to his firm chest,his slender fingertips,
his long wavy hair,
his mouth sucking my bottom lip—
The world spins, the stars shift,
and I can’t see anything except his smoky gray eyes gazing into mine.
You scare me,
whispers from my mouth across his.
Good, he breathes into me.
I need you to save me.
