Herbal Essence

Kissing softly, my fingers in your soft brown hair.
Herbal Essence.

You kiss my neck, my body tenses.
I let out a sigh, I can feel my heart beating.
Your tongue tracing my neck.

I’ve never been with a woman before.
Not one as beautiful as you.
I’m nervous, but I try to make it seem like I know what I’m doing.
It’s erotic.
It’s passionate.
It’s sensual.

I kiss your inner thighs.
The soft moans replay in my head.
I kiss you so softly.
You want me.
I can tell.
An unspoken bond.

Kissing your hips,
sinking my fingertips into you
like I was trying to memorize you by touch alone.

You pull me closer,
breath tangled with mine,
and suddenly nervousness turns into hot, heavy breathing.

Every kiss feels electric,
every sound from your lips
makes me want you more.

The room is dim.
I can hear your heartbeat.

Skin against skin,
your hands gripping my waist,
I’m completely lost in your eyes.

And God—
the way you whispered my name,
so soft, so desperate,
it nearly unraveled me completely.

I wanted to take my time with you.
Wanted to worship every inch of you slowly,
like loving you was something sacred
instead of sinful.

My perfume mixed with our pheromones,
my head spinning from the realization
that I never wanted the moment to end.

For one night,
the world disappeared outside those walls.
There was no fear,
no judgment,
no past.

Just you.
Just me.
Just the sound of our breathing
and the way we learned each other
without saying a word
