paradise

strawberry stained skin

your lips red like mine

staring into your eyes

and calling it paradise

nothing tastes like you

those irresistibly sweet kisses

that anchor me

to your shores

this love is innocent

we share our warmth

under the blanket like the sun

you're asleep, breathing softly

head resting on my chest

your hair carelessly tangled

between my delicate fingers

to paradise.
