I do recall
Kissing your fingertips
One by one
I nearly lost count by ten
And your hands
Turned to the sky
One by one
I held them tight to mine
And then your thighs
Outside and inside
Soft and warm and white
I was feeling dizzy by two
And your eyelids
Tightly drawn away
A curtain pair
Still closed to me I'm sure
And your mouth
Moist and open
In seeking me
And after that
I’m afraid
I have to admit
I forgot to count
Kissing your fingertips
One by one
I nearly lost count by ten
And your hands
Turned to the sky
One by one
I held them tight to mine
And then your thighs
Outside and inside
Soft and warm and white
I was feeling dizzy by two
And your eyelids
Tightly drawn away
A curtain pair
Still closed to me I'm sure
And your mouth
Moist and open
In seeking me
And after that
I’m afraid
I have to admit
I forgot to count
