I have so many thoughts running through my head I can't sleep. I can't begin to tell you how much I crave you. I think about what it will be like when you open your hotel door and I get to see you for the first time. I imagine saying, "Good morning, handsome." Bravery brought me there but the butterflies in my stomach are fluttering around - crashing against the inside of me, begging to be released.
"Good morning, Katie Jo." I can already see your smile. Since you are always very quick on the compliments I'm sure you will say something. But I don't want to hear them. I am too needy. I want everything and all at once. I want your lips on mine, I want to FEEL the story since its morning. I still hope you will read to me before bed that night, but I need to feel absolutely everything. So I stop your string of compliments by placing my finger tips on your lips.
"Thank you for coming to visit me. But shhhh...I want to see you. Feel you. Taste you. We'll talk later, but I need you now. I'm invoking my right to clinginess, neediness now. Please kiss me."
And you do. We are still standing in the doorway and I start to remember what it is like to be kissed. I had forgotten. We take turns exploring each other's mouth. I feel sexy. I feel alive. I never want to stop.
