To My Lover This Season

Holly sweater, holly sweater, holiday cover of sleigh rides under the sheets,

come closer. Candy cane tongue, red lipstick on my neck, then lower.

Tinsel on the headboard, your laugh getting louder, slower,

fireplace glow on your shoulders, sweat on the cocoa months, gooey marshmallows on

the nightstand. You the only gift I wanna unwrap, love.

To my lover, all I want is you this season. To my lover,

body caroling, we got reason to. My lover, jingle in the

bedsprings, breathing . Ugly sweater on the floor, you said it
