call and response

dauntless love

By kpPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read
my wedding day

before our breath is stopped quick at

lips, we linger, soaking,

all in.

clutching fingers against reactive skin.

hair standing at attention

to your details-

understanding your prints,

and knowing each line-

noticing the nearly imperceptible twitch of your delicate pinky as it comes to rest against my flushing neck.
