REGARDING KISSING ❋ Jenna-Katheryn Heinemann

what I am familiar with: the sound of saliva moving through my mouth

it anchors me to your warm arm

sitting parallel to mine

I want to hear all the fluids moving in our bodies at this moment

what I know sometimes feels contained

in this container it expands

like a soft marshmallow–like a dream

about kissing

& light, & ambition

touching vulnerability leaves me porous like a sieve
