Pure Bliss

Folder: 
Love Blossoms

In the afterglow of sex,

I rested my head on your chest.

 

I have exposed myself to you

in every sense of the word.

 

I poured out my heart to you,

showed you my genuine self. 

 

I made myself vulnerable

because I trusted you.

 

You have seen very inch of me,

my skin bare to your touch. 

 

And in this moment my smile returned,

the one that hid in darkness.

 

And from my belly bellowed 

a laugh that I didn't know I had left.

 

And I buried my head in your neck

and chuckled at your silliness.

 

This is what I lived for-

instants of pure bliss.
