Ode to the secret of the goosebump

the surface of skin shows the extent of excitement

as goosebumps explode, erecting hairs on my neck

Exploiting emotions expressed in an instant

such displays spoken, in one tiny speck

words cannot replace what a goosebump is suggesting

the various feels, waiting there, under the skin

so obvious that there is no objecting

the thrilling adventures, about to begin

deny if you will, as the words fall on deaf ears

the body has boldly said much more than you know

increasingly stronger, as the temptation draws nearer

revealing your secrets, with each braille dot its shown

love poemshumor
