An affectionate touch from a friend
sent chills up and down my spine.
I came up with yet another line.
Not quite ready for what was ahead,
wondered how long I could avoid the bed.
My coral lips didn't help,
mesmerized he was,
watched them as I spoke.
Hypnotized by their movement.
Up, down, up, down
envisioning clothes
left on the ground.
My ears heard no sound.
What he said, I don't recall,
too focused on not wanting to fall.
