In The Night



In The Night

In the night I see nothing but you
All your naked wonder
And your eyes shut
Nothing but breathing
Lifting breasts
Coupled with your sighs
Whispers quietly
Your body at rest now
I see your afterglow
From so much love
Shared between us
In soft shadows.

Darkness barely conceals you
In the dim light you glow
Hair so dark and long
It’s as if you are night itself
Flowing through my hands
Purring beneath me
Your navel and hips
And your derrière
Heart shaped
Moved with me
In tandem motion
Now ever so still.

Your sensual silence inspires me
The soul of your sex
Opening rose
Music for my mouth
Flowing over me
And oceans of petals
Holding me spellbound
In your original magic
Rolling me over
Again and again
Until our joy
Ran over with rapture.

Our cosmic encounter still ripples
Starry night of our lives
Keeps inspiring me
To soothe your heart
By ravishing your body
I rise in readiness
Blood pulsing in veins
My muscles aching
Your energy revives me
Sleeping no longer
Our passion awakens
In the night once more.

You satiate my hunger and thirst
Mouths eagerly embrace
Tongues wrestling
In hard kisses
Moans and cries
Expressing what words
Fall short to say
Our union resembles
Fire and fury
Burning so brightly
We collide and explode
And make love alive!
