Your smile is intoxicating,
saturating my bed with nervous sweating.

I want to be more than the next on your list
of pretty necks kissed
Of heads buried in pillows without faces
Of flesh that’s consumed but not tasted

Experience, experiment
Don’t move too slow, just fast enough
Don’t think too much

I can change expressions on your face
but not obsessions on your mind
Your words dance on my chest
I do my best not to let them sink in

Experience, experiment
Don’t move too slow, just fast enough
Don’t think too much

I want to be more than the next on your list
of pretty necks kissed
Of heads buried in pillows without faces
Of flesh that’s consumed but not tasted

I absolutely adore this. Although, I do have to stop and think occasionally

Haha! Have to laugh at s1nfully_1nn0c3nt's remark. Still, I hear what you are saying. Let it come natural, "don't think too much."
