Words
are toys my fingers play
to touch you when
you're far away.
They weave like rivers through your hair
and send you
smiles because I care.
Letters linger on your skin
in lieu of fingers
seeking sin.
Upon an alphabet of lust
I'll send my kisses if
I must.
So read the caress of my thoughts
where softly on your
skin it walks
And fall under the spell I spell
when my tongue its
teasing tells
Across your skin, across the miles,
I send you kisses, hopes
and smiles.
