You came out of the bathroom, jeans unzipped, panties showing, careless. You always are. You never see what I see, never feel what I feel. We could call it lesbian bed death, but we never had lesbian bed life for real...just scatterings of blazing hot fires here and there, loads of oxygen, quick to light up, quick to burn out. We've discussed it so many times it is pointless to do it again. One of us has to give and it is generally me...giving up. I love you so deeply, you fill so many never before touched parts of my soul, that I cannot let you go. But I see and I long for...
You stretch out beside me to talk, jeans still unzipped, your oddly bronzed skin and slightly rounded belly. I am allowed to touch, chastely, and I do, whenever I can because I hunger for your skin. It is spectacular. You worry about your age, how you look, but your body is like that of someone twenty years younger...I know. I've seen them. Your breasts are firm, your skin taught and your ass. Oh baby.
My nights are driven by dreams of sensuality and hard-core sex. The need to let my adult child romp and play freely, to explore, to laugh, to be silly and intense. Well. It simply remains a need. In my heart I've vowed to love no other and so, in some way, must let go of this piece of myself.
Sitting beside my bed is the tin of honey dust I bought awhile back, the cellophane seal still intact. To be allowed to sweetly powder your whole bum with that tiny soft feather duster-may I please? Then may I softly lick it all back off, getting dangerously close to places you will not let me explore? Tease where your ass meets your thigh, that almost-fold. Bite as you know I love to do.
Is it fear? Is it the progression of age? Is it power? I no longer care the reason. I'm tired of pursuing loveless sex that turns out to be so much less than you and I have had in our purely vanilla and rare encounters. And yet the tears fall freely as I write this. I long for you so...to be allowed to love with all of me.
