Under Sappho's Gaze

By BlackVelvet Rose

Under Sappho's Gaze

i walk to the bedside, sitting on the edge
i reach up to caress your raven hair,
down your ear, across your cheek, along your jaw,
i lean in inhaling your scent.

sapphire, desire filled eyes, long lashed
rivaling crystal clear waters of the Turquoise sea;
sultry and unblinking
seductive entrapment in liquid blue

trailing soft butterfly kisses down your cheek
stopping on your lips;
lingering, hovering
feeling your warm breath

it's like your soul trails on your lips
guiding your breath into me, binding me down
you sweep through me as though to rid my sins
but then to lie into me, take control, take me as i am

your fingers carry a softness to them
that makes my flesh quiver for comfort,
to taste your flesh would bring me such joy
i feel i morph before you, to bring you unto me

i can't help myself, i trace your contours
fingers tip toeing down your back, feeling
teasing with the pads, loops and swirls loving you
knee to thigh, you are so hot next to me

as the heat suddenly begins to rise i cannot stop,
like i am suddenly watching a mirage
hands like vice grips on your thighs, unrelenting
can you take me? i want to force myself unto you.

we tangle as lusty swimmers in this sea of sheets,
my tongue exploring your lonely caverns and valleys
searching, crawling, needing the hidden treasures,
i need no map to search, i know the trail well.

my mouth upon succulent tender peaks, tongue rolling
swirling bringing forth throaty lustful moans, fingers diving
into your rich oasis, feeling your warmth spread over my hand
your scent intoxicating, an earthy sin induced primal orgasm.

riding on glistening waters of the purest blue,
a soul of sapphire burning with intense heat
all thoughts, movements, uncontrolled caged
in consumption of logic and reason leaving nothing
untouched in its inevitable wake but the
purest love of sapphire blue...

    Women write the best erotica and you are the resident master. Almost makes me feel like I need a cigarette now in the afterglow, cheers Nikki!

    You miss down need graphic art to paint a vivid scene. This is tastefully and elegantly sexy. Your words continue to linger on long after I move on to another piece. Simply stunning, you are. Sometimes when I read you I just want to bite your tongue. Like many others I've grown to love here; talented is an absolute understatement for you. Bows- Scholar
