Thankfully

Chemically induced confessions  
Traceable affections 
A hands on lesson
Your body on display,
 eyes follow
the edge of every curve 
from your smile to your hips
to my freudian slips
My thoughts and your body
are one and the same
the sound of my pillow 
Says my heart is racing
In a minute, I'll exhale 
to keep the room from spinning
Justice on my mind
For a crime I have in mind 
Your bitten lip
says you're complicit,
confessions are whispered 
guilty as I am
 the sun begins to ascend
as we transcend 
all that we were
Embracing who we might be
on a forever endeavor 
or maybe just a few hours more
Crime and punishment 
Criminally negligent 
Title it however you want 
I will remain unapologetic 
for  you thanking me
repeatedly.
That was what I was thinking.
You have a right to remain silent
Now, shall we begin
with some extracurricular activities 
retracing the lines I drew
from your body 
to that synapses 
 that said
"Don't say a word"
