a new birthday.

Tonight, we’ll sit together. Laugh with each other, and I’ll blow you kisses from a foot and three inches away.
My eyes will straddle your face.
We’ll acknowledge nothing and toast everything, as we get drunk on each other’s laugh.
We’ll have the best time we ever had.
I’ll rave on about the sightlines from below you, and you’ll smile at the corners of my mouth…
You’ll touch my face and I’ll kiss your chest.
I’ll rub your calves and you’ll tickle my back.
We’ll make the best of what we have…
I’ll watch your eyes and realize again and again.

THIS IS THE HAPPIEST I’VE EVER BEEN…

You’ll blink once. I’ll blink twice.
You’ll sip your water and eat the rice
That I’ll taste on your lips when no one is looking…
Fine Filipino cooking…
The kind that lingers on and when I take a breath,
The aftertaste comes with the oxygen…
And there it will stay. Until I say go away. Even then, I’ll still taste it
again and again…
And when we’re alone, you’ll walk in the room wearing cloth that’s quite appealing.
Very beautiful, and just enough revealing,
Tasteful, but not too concealing.
You’ll put your hand to my chest as I try to stand.
Pushing me back as I land on your bed where I’m POWERLESS, staring at a HEAVENLY BODY utterly FLAWLESS…
You should be in orbit...
I’ll fall asleep with my head on your breast,
You’ll lie awake with a ready caress of my chest.
GOD. I WANT YOU HERE IN MY ARMS, NOW.
Just listen to the rhythmic crashing of waves on a beach that is your breathing.
As I drift away with you as my sail…
In the middle of the night, I’ll awake to the feel of your hand
Under my beltline.
These sins are not crimes, just lines. And the feeling is BEAUTIFUL…
You’ll wake me up in your playfully sexy way
As our muscles will relax and flex away.
I’ll pull your underwear down 4 inches and put my lips to
The most sensitive parts.
As your fingers weave through the hair on the back of my head.
You’ll crane your neck and I’ll kiss your throat and lead up to licking your lips,
Where I still taste that fine Filipino cooking… Because…
Tonight, your eyes looked at me in a way I’ve not felt in 10 weeks.
And I’ll look at your cherry-blossom cheeks, which will
Shrivel up into a smile I’ve not seen in a while.
I’ll want to see this again and again because…

THIS IS THE HAPPIEST I’VE EVER BEEN…

Because tonight, we’ll watch our favorite T.V. shows and I’ll admire the cherry blossoms as they’re ripe, because who knows?
We could do this every night…
