And I am....

looking through photos of days gone by
your women - sharp intake of breath

a caressing finger
tells me more
than words or deeds

words or deeds obvious
thoughts feelings secret
subject to concealment

a hidden agenda
when revealed
shocks absolutely

you laugh ‘Ha’ and say
‘We’re talking about
20 years ago! ’
OK yes we are

but

in that moment
in our time
you experience
pleasure
the same tingle
you experienced

20 years ago
when your penis
responded
to a girl
everyone
lusted after
