Hidden wings


More than anything I wanted her to know that I cherished her body.

Curves, crevices, and marks.

 

She silently rose from the bed fully exposed, and made me her audience.

Every part of her ached to be loved, to be treated like a woman,

To be beautiful.

 

I will always wonder how she hid such radiance.

But I suppose Angels have always hid there wings so well.
