"Hickeys"
Hickeys on your neck
They look like dark splotches
I wish I gave them to you
With lips on your skin
And hands in your hairI'd be gentle at first
Comforting really
But I'd still leave marks
It would different though
Because I'd be the one giving
And you
Receiving
It would be us
Sharing an intimate moment
In private
In secretHickeys on your neck
Reminds me how they appear
With lips pressed so tight
No air to release
The suction builds
With lips on your skin
This is how
It beginsHickeys on your neck
They serve as a reminder
Of what was
Of what could have been
The night before
It could have stopped there
It could have kept going
I imagine it felt nice
I imagine how you feel
In those sacred moments
When your emotions start to reel
