Undeclared

By freudian-slip

His finger traced across the top of my lip
light enough i could feel the air
under it
bottom eyelashes dark lined against hazel eyes
pulling me in with each
blink
and I sigh quiet enough to still make out
his nervous tension
I've never done this
he said
and for an instant I almost knew
he was glad he did

I love short poems. This one was a slow build up, it felt like a storm approaching knowing that it'll kill you. Then the ending, pow. I'm reeling. Great write.
