She drinks me in like all
The metaphors she lets slip between
Silky fingers, in the dark of
Night under a streetlight she
Kisses me like a soliloquy
Hyperbolic professions drip from the tip
Of her tongue to my waiting mouth
She leaves me shameless
Drunk on the thought that she could be the
Last, I want her, I want it to hurt
I implore her between sheets to leave
Me with something tangible
She agrees…
Time slips into distant memory as my
Fingers trace the indents her canines left
On my flesh
