i have not touched
his lips to mine
i do not know the smell of his neck
his shoulders
*
i have never looked
into his eyes as his eyes looked

אז בוא אלי פרפר נחמד שב אצלי על כף היד שב, תנוח, אל תפחד

I Like To Take My Time
I like to take my time I mean that when I want to do a thing I like to take my time to do it right!
