communion

By Armand

As I watch you lay asleep
In tranquil slumber of night's content;
An angel wrapped in linen white
That barely conceals the lacey black.
And as you stir from quiet rest
I brush aside a fallen strand;
And lower my mouth to waiting flesh
So soft and warm around your nape.
You bear the pain of piercing teeth,
Exposed in mounting secret lust.
My hand begins to roam across
The curves and folds beneath the sheet.
Your breathing becoming uncontrolled
As fingers caress through moistened cloth.
A quivering pulse between your legs,
A hunger's gate upon your breast.
You arch your back and turn your cheek,
And take my tongue in parted lips.
You feel my soul within the breath,
A haunted spirit and desire.
A union in a cleaving kiss
Has joined by way of fate's design.
The embers of two hearts as one
Within a world of passion found.

    gently intense, sensual and provocative. Like listening to Moonlight Sonata on a cool summer night. Beautiful indeed.

    this is true sensuality, flowing so beautiful, words evoking breathless images, leaving one suspended in a consuming flame

    I feel so sorry for the embraced, yet feel the intensity and passion of the seemingly unloving union. I love how you can feel both sides of it. Beautiful and disgusting.
