I want to be as dark and terrifying as your pupils get when I whisper something you've never heard before.

I want to be your contracting ribcage when your body prepares itself for the incoming war of lust and boundaries.

I want to be the unsettled texture of your sighs while you pretend you're not in love.

I want to be as enslaving and infectious as the laughter emanating from your throat is when I'm kissing it.

I want to be the sweetness of your lips when you kiss someone who means something to you.

I want to be as lethal as the tremble in your voice is when you realize you're addicted to me.
