Still

While you're in the shower
I imagine the soap slides
down your lean body
rolling off smooth skin

I cast these visions away
it's too late for this
you open the door
I notice a following mist

Your smile is graceful
and yet, I feel dirty
these images I see
I curse your beauty

I can't stop myself
I must bring you closer
admiring your mouth
there's no better lover

Content, you lay against me
I know you're used to this
softly, I touch and plead
for those humid lips

you're almost too precious
delicate and kind
in this world of sins
finally something that's mine

Author notes

I used the first picture for inspiration. The title 'Still' is meant as in, unmoving. Not as in 'continuously'. (Just to be clear)

    **********
    I got the still... Very beautiful imagery in this poem and a great write overall. I really liked the last stanza as well which ties in nicely with my prompt to an extent.

    beautiful imagery...

    precious is precisely the word...you're almost too precious
    delicate and kind
    in this world of sins
    finally something that's mine
