Thought you would like to know,
that you've deranged me.
I go wild on your bed -
my eyes reflecting the red lights.
Took me a warm moment,
and you just a blink to lick;
Sinuous lips with tongues, foreign.
Pushing my hair behind my ear,
You pushed me down,
coming down on me like a predator.
I called out your name,
and you, honey, were trying your
best not to burn, under the sheets
covered with my sweat.
My glasses were on the floor,
my clothes covering it like a blue ocean.

“If you forget how I taste, I'll remind it to you.
Because I'll always be there, my fingers gyrating inside your mouth, claiming you.”

You dragged me, blackened the world.
But I'm still here, a scarf around my hand.
Your touch is like a scorching moon,
which I miss tonight, as I'm
laying on my bed alone.
You say, I intoxicate you;
with a dry hibiscus lipstick.
Chase me? I'll run away further.
But you lend me your faith,
and I was ever ready to do
everything for you.
