Like cinnamon, hot and exotic.

So sweet, like earth, warm, deep

and dark - I could make you my home

like a meerkat in the Kalahari desert

burrows underground;

The scent of skin on skin,

And sure of yourself like a jaguar

hunting its pray in the dead of night.

Comforting as hot chocolate covered

in cream; Solitary like a long lost diary kept in an attic

somewhere. Cocky, face towards the stars,

yet grounded, feet firmly placed on concrete

while mine float freely above. The string

of my balloon. The anchor which keeps my head

level. Proud like a stag; A tower; and the ink

of a typewriter which spreads your story

across a blank page.
