Restless

Restless


Restless fingers disturb her sleep
follow the line of her jaw
to her barren neck.

Mercurial fingers,
tantalizing textures,
vertebrae clothed in silk.

REM eyes dance behind shadowed lids.
Fluttering, shifting,
hip hop, salsa; erotic beat.

Her breath comes in raspy gasps
husky, stifled,
slipping past strawberry lips.
Juicy, wanting,
desire the taste of restlessness.

Vaporous musk slips over slick wet skin.
Enfold me, hold me,
scent me up with your restless smell.
Tantalizing, waking, invigorating;
random wisps of humidifier mist.

Body vibrations, crescendo building,
completion sounds, whisper and done.
Tangled sheets, restless release,
expelled breath.

Sound slumber, memory fades.

Restless fingers traverse her hip
trace the line of her back
to her tranquil neck.
