Distinctly Ours

If my fingers could
simply rise upward
over the ebb and flow
of your body's ocean
lingering when necessary
and hasty when it makes you nervous
until I reach your lips
and they part like the red sea
and you slowly
so slowly
surround my fingertips,
eyes closed.

After, our lips would meet,
in an embrace reserved for
returning war heroes
and prison escapees to lovers.

Body to body
like a tangled web.
Oh, so metaphoric
and still the pleasure is
all distinctly ours.

Until we would collapse
panting, exhausted
and smiling.
