Poetry: One Last Time

One Last Time

Fingertips brush down my spine

Lips nibbling near my ear

The slight tug on my hair

As you pull my head back to accept your kiss.

Tonight We hold each other as if its not ending

Loving the way our bodies sing for one another

This was not where we went wrong

It was everything outside this room, this bed.

My love for you hasn't died

Your love for me never truly lived.

I tell myself I'm okay with that

I am only lying to myself

Your body spooned against mine

So close, I can't tell where you end and I begin

Lovers just for tonight, One last time

Tomorrow will come too soon, ending the spell
