Content Warning: explicit sexual content


The sharp, unexpected spark
Ignites my interest, my smile
A hunger to discover more
To explore this new body
This whole, amazing, fucked up human being
How he might fit
With me
In me

Curiosity and desire
Laughter and connection
Feeds that electric spark
As it courses through my body
With anticipation, excitement,  
A tinge of fear.
Running my hands over his body
Feeling his tongue on mine
His hand grasping my hair
Needing my body with every inch of his
It lights a fire deep within
Waking up a beautiful temptress
I’ve kept chained, hidden inside
Feeling his body, his hunger,  
His cock
She comes alive with vibrant touch
Breathing life into all of me.

And it feels good
And it feels right
Fun
And easy
I’m at ease, I’m good with this
And that
Is the most surprising thing of all
