Description Red velveteen kisses,
little rabbit,
i want to make you real-
i want you to feel.


The primal beat
of your temples
ripples through my breast-
your silken face clutched to my open heart.

The radiating heat
from your lips
to my chest
warms my goose-pimpled skin.

I dig in
to your supple shoulders
with french nails-
I want inside you.

You can cringe lightly,
but you must embrace me
while i rip through your layers,
to uncover lost treasure.

I'm here to see the darkness
of your putrid shame,
and to ingite
a forgotten conscience.

But my determined fingers
sift aimlessly through cloudy veils
of doubt and anger-
you choose to elude me.


Red velveteen kisses,
Little rabbit,
I want to make you real-
But only you can choose to feel.

now that i know you're a chick, i'm starting to notice it in all your writing *still feels like a simpleton*

this composition is beautiful. very basic and primal in the message, but the ideals behind it are extrememly deep which i find fantastic. the mix of the two makes this very easy to follow and attach yourself to, but very unsettling, which is sorta what you said. i don't know if that was in the design of this poem but hey! you still created a work of awesomiety.
