Until I Wrote Him
It was the kind of kiss that seared you alive from the inside out.
The kind that left you tasting her hours later, tongue aching to find hers again.
That kiss had detonated inside me, sharp and merciless.
Now, as I drove, the taste of her lingered.
Sweet, intoxicating, dangerous.
Jasmine,vanilla and wild roses.
A memory too vivid to be memory, it was possession.
It clung to my lips, burned on my tongue, taunted me with every shallow breath.
Beside me, Penelope’s voice filled the car like fireworks.
