adored

the sun glints on clean, shining snow today,

over fifteen centimetres from just the night before,

and the shimmer draws my gaze and i glance down

i notice i am walking into your fresh footprints now

my heart beats through my ribcage as you stare at me

i try to ignore it but you draw me in and now i can't look away

i feel almost choked trying to fill the gaps with words but

your saccharine kiss politely shuts me up

in your room you pull me in by the hip, right up against you

i am yours for this one pure and unending moment in time

your amaretto breath on my neck and warm fingertips on my collarbone—

i am sure that you could persuade me to stay the night...
