Weak Spots Xi

Anticipation in an eye gaze
Before the plunge between 
Lips and skin—
The vulnerable way into the heart

A rush that gushes through 
Every avenue of the frame
As a scent causes thrills that hide 
Not long enough to be secret

Hands over hands 
Soft skin wrapped in soft skin
A trace of fear—a reminder—
This is not a fantasy

This is real—laughter and doting—
Touches—more gushes and thrills—
Goosebumps forming on the flesh, 
The gaze returning in full blaze
