Twilight

There is a place
A thin line
On your inner thigh
Where my lips butterfly
Touching, but not landing
You catch your breath
As I fly away
There is
A curve
A hint of destination
My tongue follows
As your head tilts back
Lips parting slowly
Revealing another journey
I want to take
There is a rendezvous
Behind your ear
Where I have revealed all my secrets
A summer breeze here then gone
Your answer an exhalation
There is a sigh
The shared heartbeat
Of becoming one
That I miss
As it whispers
In our twilight
