red is the color that draws me close to you.
a desire uncomfortable enough to shy me away.
it’s unlikely for a woman like me,
you’re like poison.
the deepest want that numbs my lips.
control weakened by soul desire.
the feeling of pushing myself away from all of this is unforgettable.
and surprising.
this is enrapturing ache that will never let me go.
