I sent you a secret wrapped in skin,
And shades of cocoa, Earth bound melanin.
I sent you flowers caressed in silhouettes,
A garden known to your familiar eyes.
I think I heard you gasp, your lips sucked
Your breath , still your gaze locked
On the screen, it felt like Heaven and Hell.
Did my name slip between your teeth,
Half a curse, half a prayer, bitter sweet.
Did your eyes walk backwards to moments
Uneclipsed, your hands, my garden, delicious torment.
Did your breathe pause, stranded in your chest
Like a miser, knee deep in a debris of debt.
Did your nostrils forget to exhale.
Tell me, Love
How long did you stare
Before you touched yourself.
