Afterglow Moments
Breathless bodies
Bathed in candlelight
Eyes closed slightly
Shadows dancing on the walls
Erotic desires fulfilled
Images emerge from the night
Skin glistening like a mirror
Long tendrils with flowered ends
The fierce heat released
Soft rounded petals opened
Tangled limbs and eiderdown
A dark forest surrounds
Sweetness in the air
The nectar of life anticipates
On my lips, my tongue, my all
The embodiment of existence
A sliver of eternity
Sustained by the essence
Calmed to close the space
Ethereal and sensual thoughts
Nothing remains between
Warmth of another’s flesh
The silence of our dreams
Into the night
