we sat around and finished the nilla wafers

the tenderness

i was running from

 

tracked me down

and gave me the pleasure i dissapoved of.

 

 

when she'd come over

it was like the fifth day of spring.

 

 

 

 

she'd lay across my bed,

allowing me to lay on top of her.

those long legs wrapping around me

and trapping me in joy.

 

 

if it was day time we'd roll around in the sheets

the sheets warm and subtle with sun light

 

stealing away kisses from the other

 

her small shoulders being tucked away in my large tight arms

 

 

if it was evening we'd let the moonlight kiss at the cool air between us

as the steamy passion we'd share would melt away into

cool relaxation.

 

 

she'd become hungry really really easily

and i would too.

 

i couldn't cook

and she'd refuse to make do of her

wonderful culinary abilities.

 

so i'd bring up the snacks.

cheese nips, animal crackers

 

and the sweet snacks given to us from the gods

nilla wafers.

 

we'd munch on that and in the moments of sleep

we'd roll around uncomfortably through the crumbs.

 

 

her head rested on my shoulder,

made all the monsters i let run free

 

scared pups.
