hums:

moonlight drips from the sky
and her lips
that are never too far from my view  

I count out the golden drops of sun
spilled on her cheeks
as she lays beside me
twirling my hair and my heart in her fingers
whispering words like lemon drops
sweet and sour and indecisive  

she leans in
and I give in  

her casual kisses drive me insane  
they twist me up and up and up and
I’m a wind up doll
my heart turns and turns and turns
before slowly
coming to a stop
because my head remembers  
it remembers the way I felt
when she looked at
him
turned to
him
danced with
him
kissed
him  

my head tries to hold me back
but my body was never my own
it was hers

always hers  

giggles vibrate against my lips
my heart strings thrum like a plucked harp
I finally understand what it means to melt under
another’s touch 

she tastes like sweet rum again
and something inside me breaks a little more  
but her casual kisses still drive me insane  

maybe someday she’ll remember one of them
