Astraphilia (F*cking the Thunder)

By SilentStalker

I...

        I want...

you're so beautiful

                       Just say what you need

and yet...even the thunder, could not cloud this fear in my heart

        I just want...

...to run my fingers through your hair...

                Don't be afraid. It's only me

but if the rain stops, there would be less fears to deflect onto

I want...

           ...to stare longingly in your eyes...

the lightning accents you just right...I love how it does that

             ...to press my lips against yours...

you do things to me you shouldn't be able to. or maybe you should.

                    what if I wanted this all along?

...to explore every inch of you...but...

                   there is no line. not with us.

I've never wished so hard for a storm to last

                  ...to feel you...inside, and out...

not even the chaos outside...could match the storm raging inside me

   ...bedsheets crumpled in our fists...
   [let the thunder cheer me on]

   ...ecstasy poets only dream about...
         [each flash ignites me further]

               ...breaths we take in tandem...
               [the rain only sets my rhythm]

           -- e x h a l e --
          -- g a s p --
             [ f l a s h ]
           -- i n h a l e --
          -- b r e a t h e --
             [ b o o m ]
           -- e x h a l e --
           -- r e l e a s e --
            [ r u m b l e ]

          I never felt amazing.

   But...sometimes...

.....sometimes, you almost make me believe I am.

This is a great piece! Well laid out, captivating, subtle but not. Honest and enticing. Emotional. I love this

I find this an exhilarating display of words and emotions, breathing in tandem with the storm...wow...
A former member wrote: I have quite the obsession with thunder storms as well. Occasionally almost to an erotic level. This was amazingly penned, such vivid imagery. I can't wait for the next storm ;)

Well, fuck. That left me wanton, and breathless. New favorite... I don't think I ever quite felt anything like that reading a poem before... I just haven't words for this.
A former member wrote: I usually am not one for love poems, but this one stands out... The analogy between a raging storm and love and lust is very poweful. Thank you for sharing.

I've never seen you do a poem like this before....and why the hell not?? Sensual and tender...not so predatory like I'm used to seeing from you but great nonetheless. I don't think you could write a bad poem even if you tried.
