He Kissed My Scars Tonight We Made Love With The Lights Off

He Kissed My Scars

Tonight we made love with the
lights off. I looked into your eyes

through the dim light coming through
the window outside the whole way

through and you refused to look back. I thought
it was because you were disturbed by my stomach

scars and frightened by the stitches above my collar
bone from the day before the last. but after you

finished, you looked me in the eyes and kissed my
scars before making love to me again, with the lights

on and with your gaze set on mine. my heart was on fire
with passion and i suspect yours was too.

your eyes said it all and I hope mine did too.
