Painted Nails Upon My Skin

Painted Nails Upon My Skin. It’s been a long and hard damned day, Sometimes you just can’t win. Then I think about tonight, painted nails upon my skin. The moonlight on my window shades it’s peering through the crack. At painted nails upon my skin and scratch marks on my back. Love is made I wouldn’t trade it don’t get better than this. As we make our way tonight to that moment of loves bliss Holding me, I’m holding you we lay in loves sweet rest. Painted nails upon my skin drawing circles on my chest. Tomorrow I will rise once more and then do it all again. Waiting for tomorrow night and painted nails upon my skin. Edwin C Hofert

"Painted nails upon my skin" is such a nice phrase, it reminds me of "silver wings upon my chest" - nice poem.
