Shivers rippled outward from a touch,
A longing she did not know existed,
Visceral pleasure she needed so much,
An encounter she never resisted.

A needle punctures translucent flesh,

"If" is the pendulum I cling to each moment,
hesitent whether to let go.
The first step with caution, I will take the second with confidence,
while the third hints decision, implying I know.

Bury my footprints so they cannot be traced,
Bury my head in the strength of your embrace,
Bury my pride with countless humilities,
Bury my stubbornness in the ebbing seas.

A simple smile crosses my lips,
and you will never know why.
For the most mundane nuances
I hold dear to my heart,
Ruined if you were ever to try.

Hopefully loving,
Hopelessly in love,
Patiently waiting,
To return from above.

Restfully dreaming,
Restlessly alone,
Escapistly indulging,
In the fantasies I am prone.

And it would be like that time,
When you wrapped your hand around mine,
And showed me the shooting stars in the tide.

The water boiled up and blurred the band,
Of where the ocean met the sand,
