Only A Shirt Poem by Linda Marie Van Tassell

Only a shirt -

I hold it
embrace it
smell it
put it on

Only a shirt -

But it's yours

I wear it
and pretend
that I am you
trying to understand
how you make me feel
the way you do

Only a shirt -

But it's white
like my skin
and soft
like your hands
and I pretend
that I am you
and touch myself

Only a shirt -

Wrapped between my legs
and wet with morning dew
nestled between my thighs
like your wet tongue
and wet like you make me
when you recklessly take me

Only a shirt -

But so much more
the touch of you
the scent of you
and I take it off
and lie down on the bed
naked
and waiting...
