Where Angels Fear to Go

Where it becomes difficult to color between the lines. Where you’re left wondering why you were wondering in the first place. Where you tell yourself that you will take just one small bite but find yourself reaching for more.

What do I think about when I fall asleep at night?

I dream about…

…her…nameless…faceless…perfect in her imperfections…her…the girl I passed in the walkway at work…her…the woman I smiled at while ordering strawberries at the diner…her…the submissive upon whose throat my hands feels entirely too comfortable…her…embodied in the words of a stranger describing how it feels to drag her fingers across her clit at my demanding insistence….her…

…and I am…

…wanting the first touch, the first time a hand finds her bare thigh, bare everything, fingers arching to slide against her. This could be anywhere. It could be at my door. It could be in the backseat of my car. It could be on my couch, or my bed. Or floor. The first kiss might be on the small of her back, or the curve of her neck.

…and I am traveling those dark woods and freeing the wolves that haunt them; beasts that feast on the things you keep tamed through friendship, through routine, through art…

…and I am spiraling along the edge, tasting life and breathing it in like the cool crisp air after rain. Left sensitive and shivering. Hungry and happy…

…and I am practicing evil subtle enough that the soul is a gift already given…

…and I awake to the taste of lingering dreams like absinthe on my lips and the fevered echoes of desire that tickle the back of my mind until I slide under again, this time into a slumber filled not with dreams, but of…
