"Liquefying our Shadows"


You are the proverbial light on the dark side of my unquiet mind
 
Illuminating those most lonely recesses of my bruised solitude.
 
Yet before we met again, I knew I heard your soft, sensual whispers
 
Beckoning me to join you once more in your isolated seclusion
 
Satisfied only when we are one and no longer a solitary pair.
 
The light behind your eyes castes a transparent shadow;
 
Gradually, it devours my very breath inviting me to share yours.
 
United, we breathe as one once more, respiring smoothly, steadily.
 
...you breathe in, i breathe out...
 
Body warm and tranquil.
 
Aroused, our yearning hearts eagerly touch and explore.
 
Our mind's eye wide open as our body   f  i  l  l  s   with desire.
 
Ours is a union of minds, a cleaving of hearts, a joining of souls.
 
Creating the most perfect of celestial unions that will abide in the Sea of Enduring Love.
 
Warm water slowly washes over us as it bathes our swollen mind;
 
As we lie on the Rocks of Knowledge reading each others embryonic thoughts.
 
Unspoken words are uttered as we gaze longingly into each others smouldering eyes
 
Gently caressing the beating hearts of our unborn children;
 
Undressing our opaque darkness, we melt into each others liquid paradise
 
As our broken shadows merely sink and drown.
 
Lulled by the lapping water, it spreads our love eternal over our skin and into our thirsting pores;
 
Engulfed by the sensual humidity of our wet reflection and
 
Moistened by the gentle mist of this metaphoric consummation,
 
Our moist lips seal our supple bond,
 
By tenderly kissing our never-ending love beneath our skin.
