The Embrace

So often the poet extolls the embrace,
But hers mostly makes me think of losing weight,
An intimate embrace–I must not get a bone,
and how to time when we release?
Her head on my shoulder–can she smell my clothes?
I really should have brushed my teeth.

Her embrace confounds my senses.
Her embrace leaves me quite insensible,
Unsure if I'm in love, or just insecure.
