Private Expressions

Murmured

By Kelli Sheckler-AmsdenPublished about a year ago 1 min read

Murmuring hearts and

Insinuations

Low, continuous sounds

Of anticipation

Private expressions

My hearts captivation

The next thing to heaven

My true loves salvation

Covered in red

And as warm as a heartbeat

Clinging to words still unsaid

Hot and sticky sweet

As Def Leopard said

Pour some sugar on me
