Adrienne Rich - My Mouth Hovers Across Your Breasts lyrics
[Adrienne Rich - My Mouth Hovers Across Your Breasts lyrics]
My mouth hovers across your breasts
In the short grey winter afternoon
In this bed we are delicate
And touch so hot with joy we amaze ourselves
Tough and delicate we play rings
Around each other our daytime candle burns
With it's peculiar light and if the snow
Begins to fall outside filling the branches
And if the night falls without announcement
There are the pleasures of winter
Sudden, wild and delicate your fingers
Exact, my tongue exact at the same moment
Stopping to laugh at a joke
My love hot on your scent
On the cusp of winter
In the short grey winter afternoon
In this bed we are delicate
And touch so hot with joy we amaze ourselves
Tough and delicate we play rings
Around each other our daytime candle burns
With it's peculiar light and if the snow
Begins to fall outside filling the branches
And if the night falls without announcement
There are the pleasures of winter
Sudden, wild and delicate your fingers
Exact, my tongue exact at the same moment
Stopping to laugh at a joke
My love hot on your scent
On the cusp of winter
