Fusion (Loving you then and now)
Anna Gopen
When I make you laugh
a warming joy spreads like
hot baked bread melting between teeth
the grooves by olive eyes deepen when you smile
a network of roads and years traveled in unison
my fingertips trace from temple down cheek
gazing into the same emerald pools that
glistened under the near full July moon
spiced breath wafted from bright mouth
coating me in new flavors
(awakening)
Kissing petal lips still sends shivers like
tiny aftershocks down to trembling toes
hands wrap and bodies twist
linking together like a worn puzzle
the crux of you now flows in veins
(sinking into bones on a September afternoon over half a life earlier)
grafting, growing, blooming
With me
a warming joy spreads like
hot baked bread melting between teeth
the grooves by olive eyes deepen when you smile
a network of roads and years traveled in unison
my fingertips trace from temple down cheek
gazing into the same emerald pools that
glistened under the near full July moon
spiced breath wafted from bright mouth
coating me in new flavors
(awakening)
Kissing petal lips still sends shivers like
tiny aftershocks down to trembling toes
hands wrap and bodies twist
linking together like a worn puzzle
the crux of you now flows in veins
(sinking into bones on a September afternoon over half a life earlier)
grafting, growing, blooming
With me
