Hot Water Heartbeat

I left the club
Ego Up

My brain raced
a car drove towards me on the interstate
my heart thump-sunk
I moved to the side and continued
the blur the drive was
I began to dream drive
my thoughts were of you creamy white milky flesh
I arrived
stripped I sat
arose and entered the shower
the heat and steam in the dim lit room
I began to writhe under the soothing water
I washed my hair of all the spray and moose
I began to flashbulb
memories of you hot and wet
pressed against the tile
I melded somewhere between the hot water and your flesh
we kissed our hot wet mouths tongues
flashing and pressing
giving and taking
I raised your hand in mine
my face turned your cheek
I went in and bit your strong neck
my blood
began to exceed the temperature of the surrounding water
began its trip to the end to swell
began to beat my hot water heart
*pop*
i need to wash
as i soap i wish
i wish you were here and i wonder
i wonder how the touch would be
what would be said if anything
my body aches under the pressured water
i sigh and breathe in the steam
as i exit
