Breathless Encounters



You move past me
...breathe in
...breathe out
Sweet sin in a breeze
....breathe in
....breathe out
My mind races through possibilities
....breathe in
....breathe out
Soft skin and gentle caresses (such sweet sin)
....breathe in
....breathe out
We lock eyes and I am swept up in the world of you...shhhhh
Don't talk, just be still and ever present
in a moment
in my haze
in my daze
Of you and me and tangled sheets (such sweet sin)
....breathe in
....breathe out
Now say good morning

    You are an exceedingly talented writer! Your verse is also exceptionally creative.

    Love this poem—which was among my pinned poems in April’s contest—along your other piece: “Tempest of Temptation”.
