I held my tongue
I held my tounge
The day you told me to sit I was upset
Why would you want me to be that close to you purposely
I pushed away like I always do but you grabbed me
Something so sexual felt so serious at the same time
You couldn’t want me on your lap hand in hand your exhale my inhale feeling my heart beat
I zipped my mouth and threw the key
As i allowed myself to relax, sit on the person i’ve been waiting for
your warmth like a hoodie i could never buy
Fighting the thoughts in my head with the feelings in my heart
You knew
how did you know I was swallowing sentences to keep a distance for hurt
you prywd
I fold
you touch my thigh and ask in my ear what’s going on
the whisper like a strong gust of wind in the winter
you leave me with goosebumps
your hands roam learning me
more you explore the more i feel the urge to tell you stop
Ask what we’re doing
but I breathe out
You breathe in
and i can’t move
im comfortable
you kiss my neck and chest
with sweetness
so soft and kind
we’re close it’s late
I don’t want to go
this feels promising
Let me stay here
I lean back to show you I surrender
I want to show you me
Tell you I need this
I know I need you
move my hair to get a better sight of my reactions
That day I held my tongue
But if I had let it run
I’ve said too much and loose any part of you i have
I hold my tounge to protect my self from disappointment
