journey of a thousand kisses

By alaskanamber

A journey of a thousand kisses

your hot lips against my neck

candlelight flickering against our closed eyes

my soft sighs inhaled by your hungry mouth

as I snuggle in closer, deeper

your strong hand upon my hip holding me steady

one leg draped over mine slows the trembling

fingers interlocked beneath our pillow

heartbeats traveling back and forth

from fingertip to fingertip

moments before we shared erotic fantasies

confessions that brought us deeper intimacy

oh so much closer to the happiness we crave

no words can truly express this moment we share

the bond of knowing when the sun rises

we will be held close, in each others arms

silently my heart whispers "good night, my love"

instinctively you hold me even tighter

as I listen to your breath slow, deepening into rythyms of slumber

softly I kiss your lips once more

wondering if you'll ever let me love you

closing my eyes once more

my dreams join yours in the night
