A paroxysm to sire.
A wanderlust, a desire.
Soledad, I come home.
Wish for a glass of Merlot
and dream of Rome
♥
Following my mind,
you pull me close
‘Leave behind the mires’,
you urge me so.
♥
In the dark of the room,
you lead me on.
Tease me, seduce me,
on the desk, then the porch.
♥
In the scintillating darkness,
I pin you to the sheets.
Ink you with passion,
watch you wriggle and writhe.
♥
In the gentle tweaking
of my fingers,
I see you twist and curl.
As minutes become hours,
you bleed in my colours.
♥
The fierce and the fragile
unleash every emotion.
As night approaches dawn,
divinely, both are undone.
♥
Breathless but relaxed,
yearning yet satisfied,
a thing of sheer beauty yourself,
And oh, just how I’m fully alive!
