Loins from Midiland by Arian

you spun
slowly
to songs
for me
made me feel
sexy
i'd never
kissed no one before
you asked me
if i had
desire
for you and
invited
yourself down
to my bed
on your hardwood floor

you were like a shadow in the corner of the room
on the top bunk
asking if i wanted to resume
i was caught up
blinded by the color of the moon
i was awkward
following the flutter in your moves
in the summer of umbrella by rihanna
lying naked on the floor with a blanket on my corpse
i was waiting to be forced
into your compelling drama
i was waiting to be forced
out of making it a choice

you were wearing black that night
spun a web in the back that night
turned a thought into a fact that night
changed the meaning of the night that night
stuck a secret in my heart that night
taught me how to play the part that night
made another life start that night
changed the meaning of the dark that night

you knew not what you did that night
i've got the feeling i've inherited your touch
