Drapped In You:

Held fast in my arms

our lips pressed as one

the touch of skin on skin

as the flames roar behind us 

embers glow lighting the passion in your eyes

I crave for you too see 

this moment was for you

stare through my opaque walls

and look beyond sinuous and tissue

knowing this beating world

is for you

sliding my hands up and around 

your naked shoulders

laying you back and trailing my lips

down your neck to your chest

hearing you gasp 

as I slide further down

your body a sense of electric

urging me on as your flesh responds 

to the minute touches of ecstasy

in this moment and for always

you are mine and I am yours

candles flickering

making shadows on the walls

as we rise and fall as one

your moans driving me deeper

to find the core of what is you

voices unspoken

words unsaid

just eyes on eyes

speaking the language of the things

for so long both of us

wanted always to say

beads of sweat trickle down our bodies

as if crystal drops

adding to the senses and smells

of our love making

as outside the wind blows

and the rain falls

whilst the moon peers her light

through the curtains ajar

as we fall to the floor

wrapped in sheets of white

holding each other close

as shooting stars fly past

with each others dreams and wishes

for another tomorrow
