You pinch me
in peculiar ways.
My idealisms expand
under the crest of your gaze.
You are exquisite
in intangible details.
I panic, beneath
my intangible voice
Silent behind my teeth.
My heart is sinking,
littered with dreams,
into the pleasurable mess
you ripped
in my poignant seams.
I'm sweating, the
writhing curiosity I secrete for you
Chaotically thumping
with my vulnerability.
Please don't abandon the corner
of the heart you won from me.
Please don't leave before I'm brave enough
to trust you to stay.
You pinch me in the most pleasurable ways.

"Painting pictures of past paramours"
"Secrete" is a very onomonopoetic word, that really stands out in your poem. I do like how you are using S alliteration. There is a neo-love feel to you poem. Rock on
