THE SHEEETS ON THE BED WERE STARWARS

At first it is just a little poke; a nudge rather
tender and moist
this lasts for a few minutes as the two test each other out
Pushing to see how far the other is willing to go
lips on lips and tongues rolling in gentle synchronicity
soft kisses, mouths and tongues in exploration.

(Breathe)

Two bodies melt together in this new found comfort
lying on the bed in the bedroom in a parent’s house
as they familiarize themselves with the other
The thought of being caught adds to the thrill
the anticipation grows
with each press, each kiss, each caress

(Sigh)

Bodies in perfect rhythm having finally found the groove
pressed hard against each other,
yet still holding back just that small piece of themselves
Breathing becomes rapid and temperatures begin to rise
tongues and lips continue their discovery
grazing necks, ears, breasts, wrists

(Moan)

Bodies like unexplored lands
eyes and hands search for recognition
clothing heaped like hills and valleys on the floor
Once a place of childhood innocence
long forgotten action figures line the shelves
now the location of a late night rendezvous

(Exhale)

Sweaty bodies entangled
finally letting go the pieces they both held back
then…sweet release they knew would come

Hair (and what clothing remains) disheveled
Panting,  boy and girl fall on the bed
Again, and again, and again, and again
