My Man

The fingers crawled over my lips, each step a crunch on my parched soul - lullaby for my desires But where’s the wind ? Where was it, before the drizzle? The crawl slithered into sleek curling my lips into his mouth like a prey, I panted in his loop struck by the venom of his kiss I strangled reaching for the antidote You unheard my Ahhh as - mistaking it for consent. My naked body cracked in the sun frail limbs creeping towards the shade He snatched me like a predator engulfed my head and slowly all of me . My bones and tendons all crushed in his muscular coil. A chill and breath left in me maybe just for tomorrow.
