Creatures of Suffering

By FearlessDragon

Fallen from grace,
I press my lips to your flesh
All I was, Is no more
Never to be returned

Your touch is my new salvation...

I guard you from the darkness,
Absorbing your fears
My arms bundle you tight

Silky waves of hair
Brush my cheek,
My blood flushed skin,

Heat?...

Palm pressed firmly against your back
Your heartbeat becomes me,
Every breath filling me,
Embraced in ecstasy!

How could this be?

Creatures of suffering,
Why so much pain?...

Playful games,

Your fingers dance in mine,
Your head upon my chest,
Toes curling against my leg,
Tender kiss,
So wet,
So curious,

Things so simple
Yet, unparalleled...

All stands still to witness

Creatures of suffering? ...

Recollect the days
I could only watch,
In wonder...

Past pains in you
Cut me deep
Why couldnt I protect you?
Why didn't He?

Never again!

Is this anger?...

Blue tides in your eyes
Crash into me
Flooding me until I cannot take
Another second without your taste

A tear befalls my face...

To be human...

Is this is sorrow?
Is this love?

Such complexities...

Your laughter
Warms my depths,
Depths you have newly dug in me

Ironic...

You're self-conscious about your smile,

That smile!...

A single look,
I forsook heaven to touch!

You have no idea how beautiful you are,
Making you all the more beautiful

Such complexities indeed...

Creatures of suffering? ...

Whispers between the two,

... "I love you" ...

3 faint syllables mightier than He!

How could this be?...

Frozen,
This moment eternal
A blink in time and space
Shattering the void

I will never leave you

You shall never know my secret...

Is this fear?

    This one has reached deep inside me! It may be my fav of yours yet! Maybe two fallen angels? One an angel from the dark side and one who has suffered so badly by the hands of a walking devil! Thrown together to heal each other ...... Really really good !
