Like a blade, I graze my touch along your skin
Silent touch, only to breathe
The slightest movement
For silence stirs bristles through the air
Pupils focus
And attach to mine
A wave, as if a sea
Enters me
A pause
It's all a pause
Unjustly I sink into you
Give into you
Faint
Faintly a whisper, imagined
Against my hair
Where your lips brushed my cheek
In answer
