Quick mirror selfie before morning stretching

You catch yourself staring at the yoga pants pulled tight across every curve before the stretching even begins.

You feel the pull of wanting to reach through the screen, fingertips tracing the waistband sitting low on bare skin. You notice the mirror captures an angle that makes the body look impossibly soft and firm at once. You hold your breath at the casual confidence of someone who knows exactly what that pose does to a viewer.

You want the morning routine to stop right here, suspended in this moment of cotton stretched over warmth and wanting more.
