I want you to touch me.
I yearn for the stroke of your palm down
my spine,
A soft scratch under my chin.
I’ll tilt my head up and close my eyes in invitation.
A faint rumble, now radiating.
I want you to touch me,
But not like that.
You will wander where instinct refuses.
A familiar resistance stirs within me,
I arch away.
I want you to touch me.
Let me do it.
I’ll anoint you with my affection,
Rubbing my cheek against your outstretched hand.
My slow, languid blessing.
Small teeth graze your knuckles as I turn,
Letting your fingers run down my side.
You smell like me now.
I want you to touch me.
That's better.
