Russian Blue

he had a thick accent
and amazing cobalt eyes
he knew how to make the girls swoon
they were all gaga for his hard russian body
each frizzy haired, over tanned, lovely female
made daily passes at him
but i always ignored him (i'd learned not to play with fire)
maybe that's why he singled me out
he asked to go in front of me in line once
"it only take ah, one minute"
he promised
his order took a long time to fill
i rolled my eyes at him, feigning irritation
(so the view wasn't bad from behind)
"That was more than a minute" I said
He looked at me with a slanted blue wink
his lips curled up in a nike swoosh of soft pink
"It's a russian minute, baby"
he strutted off, with the world under his toes
well, i couldn't help but be interested
the man was an original wonder, to say the least
one night, under a sheet of stars and a blur of alcohol
we met again
the woods were thick fireflies
and couples that blended into one
"You like piece of gum, baby?"
he put the stick of spearmint in his mouth
and half of it stuck out towards me
he leaned over and i bit off the end of it
my lips grazed his russian speaking, rose colored, twins
i could no longer resist and so i let him pull me in
we kissed like we shared one set of lungs
his foreign fingers found their way under my tank top
and beneath my waist band
and into my soul
we wandered off, and got lost in eachother
and part of me is still lost
somewhere in russia
with the blue eyed, heart stealing, bandit
that can't write a letter to save his life
