Skeletons

I’ll coax your swollen shoulders, With hands strong as boulders, Lay next to me, Where you need to be, With touch comes true bliss, I bathe in your delicate kiss, Ponder the next, In this story’s text/ What color the light will be, When you open yourself to me, Sweat-dripped skin will press, While your jaw I’ll caress, I crave your trust, Though I must, Evaluate/ My decision, With precision/ Long-lost friend, Returned again, Come to see me, Amazed by beauty, We’ll take a nature walk, And have a deeper talk, Sip our drink, With time to think/ A fellow wordsmith, Working out a riff, Rolling in green, Like we’re a team, Ventilation, Then perspiration, Let’s work it out/ I’ll always pout, We all have skeletons in our closet, This one’s mine.
