{20} Mistaken For Affection

Your eyes
search up and down
my satisfied body
glazed over with desire
instilling in me
a treacherous fire

Your fingers
soft and worn
tender as they crawl
over my skin
concealing all
that hurts within

Your body
now reeking of our 'love'
bleeds confidence
mistaken for affection
removing all
my distrust with no objection

With such love so freely given
Intimate; without a sight
of hatred
I cherish the betrayal
of my mind
And foolishly let you in

Ummm. No?
I will never admit to this.
