Leaving Me Bare

prosaic sensuality and vulnerability

I am still inside of her

and motion with my one hand

for her to dismount.

She continues to stare

into the depths of my eyes

while saying,

Not yet.

It has been too long since

I have gotten to look into your eyes.

A red headed female with freckles across their skin stars into the camera with their hands cradled underneath their face while glowing orbs float in front of their face.

Her own eyes twinkle

and my own eyes hide

behind their eyelids

as the intensity of her gaze

and her closeness

make mine water.

For what seems like hours pass

and she unstraddles my naked form

leaving me bare.
