Analysis of Naked Love

Charles Edward York 1966 (Saigon, Vietnam)



In your arms we create our naked love
Burning fire into bodies colored nude
Kisses pressed in rose petals
Embracing lips and tongues
Writhing in circles for eager mouths
Drenched with sighs and moans.

We are so eager to satiate our sex
Nothing comes between us in the dark
Two lovers feel their way home
Setting aflame the night
With your breasts and thighs
Your navel fluttering beneath me.

Our moving ocean covers us in sea
Sweat across our skin in motion
This is how we repeat our union
We reach the top to touch Heaven
Basking in our afterglow
Our beautiful sleep radiates love.
