Heating Water
He lay
glistening skin
abandoned on the bed
His sculpted face, pulsing throat, sleek muscles
carelessly
inviting my hunger
my insatiable eyes
He, lavishly displayed
to my simmering stare
restrained gaze.
I lay
caressing him
eyes only
not daring
touch
afraid of
shattering
the fragility of the moment
the glowing picture
sprawled on the bed
next to me.
In the kitchen now
sterile white counters
gleaming tap fixtures
cold tile floor
I hurry, grab empty mug
turn, shave chunks of bitter chocolate
they splash into heating water
yes! steam rises
Bring sweet vanilla, warm scent evoking him
Crumble sugar, hint of salt; I pour.
I quietly re-enter the bedroom
seeking cozy chair next to bed
curl
sip steaming chocolate
salty taste of him
musky smell of him
still clinging to my lips
mingling with the sweet hotness
poised teasingly
on my tongue.
I could
lean over him
let my warmth
wetness
disturb him awake
or remain
tempting myself with
provocative thoughts
of this
innocent bittersweet invitation.
