Kiss Me Again (And Let?s Forget This Ever Happened)

Gabriel Duncan

Your eyes

He said

They touch me softly

My heart was pounding

Booming inside my ears

We laid

Touching

Side-by-side

I said

I never want to let you go

Inside, I damned myself

Less seriously

But still

I spoke quietly

Evading

His boyfriend?s ears

For he,

Though snoring

To me,

A fa?ade of peacefulness

While we were both consumed

In the flames

Abandoned long ago

While his fingers

Traced patterns

In the hair on my chest

I stared at the ceiling

Contemplating . . .

What?

I wondered,

What did I do?

. . . Lying with two.

How?

I digressed,

How could this end?

Tempting fate is bad enough

But jealousy is worse

And now I lay between the two

And now I lay between the two

Darkness offered little solace

While I reveled in the naked embrace

It seemed wrong now

How easily

It came to be

It seemed wrong

How gripping

The desire

How tempting

The robbery

No matter

How or who

What fault

Or intent

Or even if

It was meant

Even if it was wrong

One night together

Convinced my entire being

In mid-day?s light

My dream was realized

No.

I realized

I could not wake up

Even when my eyes were open

And I could smell the shampoo in his hair

My strongest waking recollection

Was the taste of his soft lips

If it were simple

O! If only pleasure were true logic

If happiness

Was neither dependent

On physical beauty

Or intellectual colloquy

Nor involved

With the inherent attachment

Forged by an almost

Alchemical transmutation

Of my body against his

Gawd, this stanza is beautiful, Gabe. Love it!
