With You It's Different

With You It's Different

A Poem by Emmy J.M. Powell

I'm comfortable
but crawling out of my skin

too scared to touch you

I touched the others,
I touched them a lot,
but with you it's different

with you,
I roll out the plan in my head
of what I'm going to do

I brush the words past my tongue
when I'm alone,
until they become polished
from overuse

abruptly afterwards,
they gather dust
and my face pales in your presence
and the effort was fruitless

my mind doesn't feel the need
because I just like sitting next to you

but my mind wants me 
to run the pads of my fingers
over the tops of your breasts 
before they disappear into your shirt

it wants me to brush my knuckles
against the darkened skin
between your spreading legs

wants me to breathe in
the sound of your little whines
and moans
and pants

but I love you too much

just as I've always been,
I'm petrified to do something wrong

I touched the others,
I touched them a lot,
but with you it's different
