The Neon Latitude of Your Touch

I have mapped this alleyway not by its concrete boundaries, but by the rhythm of my own heartbeat echoing against damp brick. In the celestial atlas of my soul, these rain-slicked cobblestones are an archipelago of memories—each puddle a mirror reflecting stars that do not belong to our sky.
He is here now, standing at the intersection where longing meets presence. I wear this lace like armor made from whispers; it holds me tight while letting me breathe in the scent of ozone and distant coffee shops. The leather of my trousers feels cold against skin that yearns for a different kind of friction—the slow glide of fingers tracing the architecture of my spine.
When he reaches out to brush a stray lock of hair from my face, it is not merely a gesture; it is an act of cartography. He is drawing new coordinates onto me, redefining where 'I' end and 'we' begin. The city around us—its neon signs bleeding into the asphalt like spilled ink on parchment—fades into white noise.
In this moment, my internal compass snaps North toward him. I feel a warmth blooming behind my ribs that could light up every dark window in Seoul; it is an ancient heat reborn under fluorescent lights. He whispers something against my ear, and suddenly the urban grid collapses. We are no longer standing between two walls—we are drifting through a constellation of shared breaths, where one kiss becomes the new center of gravity for all known worlds.
