Opium Blonde

She hears my steps from behind her
As she sorts the mail
She lifts her head slightly
Knowing what is next

The slight movement
Tells me that even though
I couldn’t see it
She was starting to smile

I reach her and reach out
She tilts her head
And knows who and what
I want

Arms around her in slow motion
Closer
My face in her hair
Mmm the sea of hair

I breathe in that sea
An ocean of intoxication
A world of pleasure
And peace

Opium blonde
