the back of your mouth.

i can taste myself in the back of your mouth.
your saliva mixed with mine.... mingled.... warm.

i can taste your lips against my tongue.
your breath feels like cotton.... soft.... sweet.

i can taste your sweat as it rolls down your brow.
it's musty and wet.... like saline wine.

intoxicated on the music of your laugh.
longing to feel your body pressed against mine.
to feel your chest moving rhythmically up and down,
as we breathe in unison.
the universe stopping for just minutes,
while we exist as one. breathing.

as i taste myself in the back of your mouth.
