Yes
If you ask
To trespass

Let’s laugh
Until it hurts

Until our weight
Fades inert
Like shadow shapes of fate
And chocolate—
Sharing a plate
Of its innate dessert

You turn in sleep
Like Saturn

Beautiful to keep;
To earn

Thick breaths are deep
And cathartic to hear

A hush just above a peep
Rushes past my ear

And I yearn
Like the sun is burning

Warm in the distance

I want to awaken you this instance;
A selfish thought

But I can’t chance
Getting caught
Or pulled from the pleasant balance
Of our entangled descent
Into silent co-existence

So I rest
With my chest
On your back
And an arm slung slack
On your breasts

Trust is worth earning
Before we hold and touch

So you’re
No more
Torn by resistance
In my presence
Of forlorn remnants
Worn in my skin like thorns

I’m like a boy
In the open ocean
Buoyant with joy
Aware without a care
That that is where
The sharks swivel serpent

Whence
Did innocence
Hold her in the entrance
Since you told her, “no further”
Though true desire took difference?
