the tango

a small flutter of wings is the whisper under my soul

hidden under my ribs

and moving through my bones,

love moves inside of me

warming my blood

and ending under my fingertips

sliding against your skin

whenever we touch

fingers gliding close to your heart

to feel your pulse

and to slowly reach your lips,

I fall into you

and taste you on my tongue,

your mouth tastes of berries

and your skin of salt

your heartbeats

tick like seconds and mark my time,

that hot breath that you leave on my neck

the feel of your hands on my back,

arms holding me closer

until I lose my breath

head spinning

mind at its last

coherent thoughts lost

logic put to its rest

body against body

builds friction that speaks

it speaks of you and me

of me and you

with a small flutter of wings

like a low whisper

just before the explosion
