Goddess

You're a goddess, Goddess

And I don't know how to tell you,

When I'm in the room with you,

I have to pretend that

I don't look at you the way

I do, but I do.

And I want you,

And I lust you,

And I dream you,

And I fuck you.

In reality, I walk beside you,

I laugh with you,

I keep quiet,

I tell my libido

To stop its crying because

this is all we get.

Friendship and a kiss on the cheek.

Smiling and being sweet,

when all I want is to open those

thighs and spread myself like butter

on the silky honey of your skin.

But I'm a good girl. It's true.

Nothing raw. Everything cooked.

Always polite, don't talk back unless

I'm mad. That's how it will be and I'll

get out of here, before you

notice that my eyes are not

your friends, but the fierce

reflectors of my desire, that

camp outside the fire

that's inside of me for you still.
