Nocturne (sensual)

Folder: 
Sensual Whispers

Adorned in the purple satin draping

of moonlight and shadow,

my thoughts baptized

in the effervescent fountain

of our first euphoric encounter,

I wander... cherry-stained,

through the winding labyrinth

of a less than innocent infatuation...

drenched in the ripening

of a hypnotic nectarine fantasy

that finds me burgeoned... enslaved,

by the potent and all-encompassing sear

of your concupiscent eyes.



Ferment me in pomegranate kisses,

unclothed in the hush of an indigo night,

while grenadine's elixir drips ambrosial,

trickling to fill the crevices

of this unquenchable thirst.



Hungered have I,

impatient for the addictive pleasures

of your rapt possession,

I tremble...

intoxicated beyond redemption,

engulfed helplessly by the fires

of this wanton obsession.



Jasmine permeates my senses,

the air... perfumed, inhaled

in shuddering breaths of karmic recognition.



Come closer.



Assuage the burn of desire's nocturnal candle,

licked wicked

by the swollen fragrance of anticipation...

sweet scented aphrodisiac.



Mold the pliable clay of my willing form

to the quixotic whims of your insatiable appetite.

No limitation shall hinder the hours

of our sacred joining...

heart... mind... and body.



Open wide the dewy portals to your Shangri-la.

Enter the honeyed halls

in the palace of your kingdom

where you reign supreme and I...

I am your fallen angel,

quivering in the grip of this most primal urging,

and you... my salvation.



Ravish me with your sins,

then anoint me with your absolution,

as we shatter, prismed...

spiritual entities,

in those few breathless seconds

of ecstatic commune,

until we tumble softly back into cognizance,

spent by the tidal wave of passion

that rendered us undone

in the Chantilly tangle

of ebony lace and shredded inhibition,

as the silver of a voyeuristic moon,

a witness to our fervid intimacies,

blushes pale amaranth.



Wrapped in the silken cocoon

and grappled sheets of le petite mort,

we find Xanadu,

our fingers entwined

in the tender clasping of soul

that only lovers know.



You linger,

swallowing my whispered adoration,

as I lay... sated,

savoring the remnants of Zabaglione appeasement,

harbored...

until Morpheus claims us in his sanguine embrace.
