Tea that’s Just a Little Too Hot

I don’t want to forget it, that feeling when your lips connect with mine

How the word fades away, not in loss, but in a way that tells me I’ll be fine.

Everything is bigger, but you and I, we stay,

we are the gooey center melting into each other in every way.

And I don’t even mind, how could I ever fuss

because in those moments I want nothing more than just being us.

Naturally we’ll drift apart, gasping for much needed air,

but I won’t let you go my love, I’ll pull you back, beg you to touch me everywhere.

For feeling your touch is magic. How can I ever be self conscious of the things I am not

when you look at me the way you do, like I’m tea that’s just a little too hot.

and you consume me anyways not thinking about the risk

because I sooth your heart and quench your soul in an unexpected twist.

So pull me down into your love, devour every thought,

wrap me up in your arms and banish every demon I’ve ever fought.

Falling in love with you is better than I could ever wish

So drink your tea and know I’ll be here soothing the burns with a kiss.
