Ripples In The Night

Ripples In The Night

You arrive undressed
Dark lovely hair
Flowing freely
All amorous shaped
Cool as shadows
Curves swaying
A sensual stride
In sexual fanfare
I am undone by you
My composure
Comes all apart
The gravity of your gaze
Arrests my attention
Under your trance
A blue moon unexpected
Takes up my eyes
Subtly and completely
In your amorous aperture.

Seems way too long
Since I have been
Asleep in absence
Waiting here for you
The face of time
Moves forward
Your warm arms
Wrap me up
Inside your embrace
I am breathless
Your skin
Soft as water
Brushes me
Electric affections
Punctuate
Your kiss
Our mouths
Coupling in wet circles.

Becoming living shades
Of colorful hues
We paint the room
All our own
Our bed
Quickly turns into
A wonderland
Two lovers
Playing each other
Making music
In breathy moans
Reciting I love you
Made for this
We create
Our recipe of love,
Lips and verse
Rewriting stars
Flashing hearts
As ripples in the night.
