Salty Memories

by: Starlight (Lissa Marques)


Do you remember
laying me down
on your weathered blankets
that you wrapped tightly around my trembling body?

And how you sang sweetly in my ear,
...you needed me so much closer.

Every whisper and breath
tingled down my shoulders,
my arms,
my chest
only to be soothed by your warm lips that pressed down deep with every kiss.

My tears slid down my cheeks.
A hot stream melting into your hand
as you wiped away the heat.

I looked up into your eyes hidden behind glass.
The corner of each eye gleamed with the sweetness of your salty tears.

I kissed them to never forget
...the taste
...the feeling
...the warmth
...the love,
your love

I will never forget.
