Struggle

I watched your lips
while you talked
I couldn't help myself
your words fell on deaf ears
while I imagined the taste of those
luscious lips
the length of that
pure tongue
the heat of
your moist breathe
my eyes remained
locked on your lips

You spoke
I blinked
you smiled
I squinted
you continued to talk
I bit my own lip
felt my heart race and
my temperature rise but
I missed all the conversational cues
even skipped over being embarrassed
lost in the thought
of those lips
that mouth
those eyes
your hands
low waist
thick legs
look up, look up
focus, girl please, focus
just keep your eyes
above the neck

So I watched your lips
while you talked
engaged in a conversation
all my own...
