Red Velvet Couch
December 11, 2017
Passion burns,
Bright as red velvet,
Soft to the touch,
Warmth like skin,
Stained with memories,
Eccentricity of the curves,
Redolent of a rouge rose,
The ancient intimacy,
Withheld in the fabric,
Care within the stitching,
Support by worn legs,
Beauty within bodies blemishes,
Skin soft as velvet,
Blush burns brightly,
On pale skin,
We are,
Red Velvet

My partner and I performed at a jazz gig at an antique store. After we played, we sat on a red velvet couch together and decided we wanted to be together. I wrote about the connection between the couch and us.
