In love by Steve K

Let’s take it slow, honey,
break it down to moments,
strokes, beats,
so that we don’t miss one

Dissect each touch,
claiming the sensitivity of each
Slide our hands over each other
with the electricity of new lovers

Let’s take it slow, honey
Let’s de- and then re-construct each other,
one nip, one sip,
one delicacy at a time

Tasting skin like fresh fruit off organic trees
Juice running from the corners of our lips
Sweet honey
lingering on our skin, long after the fact

Let’s, honey
Let’s take it slow

I'm not a marshmallow kind of person. I'm more a hard toffee kinda girl. More intense flavour but not everyone has the teeth for me.
