Speechless

Speechless

I’ve been rendered…
Speechless
Blue frost
Black holes
stealing my breath, my thoughts
swirling down the drain.

But the downy residue,
the leftover stains of love;
imprints of us on the covers
leave me with an epiphany:

his tongue lapped up my language with mine,
and all i could do was plead into his eyes,
squeeze his arm,
brush the hair on his legs,
and curl my tongue around his,

desperately.
