it was noon
when the paint touched my skin
and brushed the tenderness
of flesh
i long to tasteyou cause me to fear
meeting your eyes
weary yet lovelyi can't fathom how it started
but the electricity i felt
jolted through my body
down to the soles
of my feetit was noon
when our lips curved into smile
and i fell
deeply to your flaws and natural self
the way you talk
and how your voice sounds like
somewhat made my ears
thirsty of musicthe moment your arm
touched mine
oh god
i'm doomed
whipped
and damnedit wasn't noon
when your chest is on my back
my knees trembled
and made me feel so weak
i know
i'm not a man nor a saint
but heaven it is
'cause your softness
will be the death of meit is evening
when you hugged my side
dirtiness of your right hand you say
is cleaning up my aches
and the eagerness of mine
to feel you more
of your skin when we sat together
and then you scooted
oh please you mindlessly
untamed meit is already late
but i can't stop giving
furtive glances
my eyes
are glued
to youit's 2am now
a perfect time to sort out feelings
that will never be indiscreet
so i ask for your forgiveness
and i--
i'll forget everything
and bury it
