Despite my best efforts,
you have not left my mind
since last week.
Your smile burns behind my eyelids
while I try to sleep.
I trace the outline of your body
in my mind's eye,
memorizing the map of your chest.
I cannot wait
to see your eyes burn with desire
in anticipation of my mouth
wrapping around parts of you
that leave you gasping for air,
and darling,
I will breathe life back into you,
just like you did to me.
