When you speak, enchanted bubbles hover in your mouth, making butterflies flutter in the garden of my heart. Your touch, smooth & fluffy like fleece, does wonders to my physique. Darling, your hands speak the language my body comprehends. You smudge the walls of my mouth with the honey of your lips, one that suffices. Your presence is light, it makes me gleam with merriment. I'm revelling in this moment, ignoring the world's ache. What is this tingling sensation in my stomach? Your name, hibiscus in my mouth. Your voice, a star in the night of my body. This love scintillates the orchid of my core. Don't stop at the shore of my body; own my sea
