There’s no denying the sweetness
When we share the body
Of a poem
Your words make my ink blush
Our fingers stroking the same lines
A teasing exchange of sugared phrases
Awakening our entwined imaginations
Every time we devour
Each other’s souls
Savoring new flavors
Created from our intimate flow
When we write like this
I need more than just letters
There’s something brewing beyond this sweet ink
Let’s put down these pens
Write on our bodies instead
Thanks for being so fun to write with Ben; we were like two kids in a candy store 🍭

It was fun working with you. Thanks for writing and paying for half the candy (or words)! “Entwined imaginations”: I like this even more on another read. Thanks again for working on this one.

Thanks Ben. “Entwined imaginations”: I remember working on that line 😆😅 I do love nothing more than to pick out the perfect piece of candy with a fellow sweet tooth… Alrighty… That’s enough sweet talk for one day or I just might be sick 🤢😜

Haha. You reached your sweet-tolerance level for the day. Funny. Feel better. Your words are better than candy; your lines give me a sugar high, and many others as well. Keep writing!
