Wanting Poem by Lilliana Rose

I am going to fall in love
with you slowly
& bring back chivalry
let you kiss me
hold my hand
open the door
for me

I am going to bring you
to the edge and hold you
there in the space
full of bliss, the second
before peaking
pretending we are
stuck in this joy

I am going to ride you
high into the sky
past the stars
towards a black hole
where we can be sucked together

I want to press my breasts
hard into your chest
fold my arms around you
feel your weight on me
lifting me upwards

I want you to reach into
my chest and pull out
my heart, hold it gently
between us
blood binding us

I want to do the same to you
so we can join our hearts
in the air & hold
them both in the light
forever.
