Enraptured

Enraptured
by ~H~

Enraptured I stand, unable to say
What comes to mouth and mind
My eyes trace the contours of your lips
Imagining what lay there to find

My hand caresses the lines of your back
While your scent overwhelms my senses
In this moment where, we nothing lack
A meeting free of pretences

Through your hair, my fingers tangle
While your lips, my neck embrace
A silent sigh of pleasure escapes
As my cheek brushes 'gainst your face

Down on silken sheets, we lay
Your breath a fire on my skin
Fingers entwined, arms tensing
As closer, I pull you in

Hard and in time, our breathing sings
Our bodies move as one
A union, intense and undecieving
In the flash of a newborn sun

-The end-
