lets be...poetry

lets be

You kiss me and smudge harsh lipstick
Across a hardened jaw,
Suddenly softening under your feminine influence.
Your body,
So quick
Cannot be enjoyed.
Hey
is exclaimed
And you deliver your signature greeting
to  birds of prey, hungry men,
hungry friends
 awaiting your attention.
My chest falls
as yours rises, breathing in the night's glow,
your eye's heavy with expectation.
We're only going to the skate park to
smoke spliffs
and touch clouds
but you, my dear, are dressed in poet attire,
all black, like how my mind goes when you cliché up my feelings,
all natural, feelings like the first time I realised I'm in love with you, Plush lips
all ready, like when I bow to painful temptations and allow you to caress my hormonal mind,
imagine my Herculean effort resulting in your body jittering
Spluttering in surprise
at the force with which you are licked and tasted and treasured
You wrap my arms around your Swan neck suddenly,
and cling to an arm that would never shy from defending your temple.
"Yes?" I ask,
when you gently whisper my name with your delicate breath.
"I really do love you.
you're such a good friend.
