I can hear your shallow breathing,
It matches the speed of my heartbeat.
Your hands all over, what happens next?
Questions only cause things to wreck.
With each passing moment, I sink into your lake -
It’s almost too much for me to take.
“One thing is sure,” I say with no conviction;
“You are my favorite addiction.”
