I’m Not Nervous Anymore

image

I just want to hold tight and push together and I just want these damn clothes off and I want to disappear into the thickness of his love and my love and pure heaven and, perhaps, never worry again.

I don’t care if we’re outside or inside or nowhere as long as we remain together and we’re in love and we don’t have to worry about life and we take these damn clothes off.

“Can We Go Further?”

image

“Can we go further?”
he whispered. We were
both around 16, yet I
was braver then…. I
knew this was it.
What would I choose?
What should I say? And
my mind going crazy
with the thought–him
and me…connected. And
I reached for him, my
heart in my throat

unable to breath.
