Tigerlotus
By Shawn Wunjo


When I touch your face, I can’t help but smile. The softness of your skin, the gentle curve of lips I can’t help but kiss. Eyes like soft earth, the little sounds you make as I kiss your neck, the gentle entwining of fingers, the way you say “I love you” even when I’m afraid to respond.
