I am suspended mid-breath;
my mind is far too concentrated on your fingertips,
tracing their perfect shapes on such imperfect flesh,
to be concerned with such mundane tasks
as breathing.
And I know as soon as I exhale,
I will tumble--
so imperfectly--
from this wild high.
Your tongue tastes of ecstasy,
of abandoning reason, inhibition,
and anything else untouchable.
