Her bronze skin radiates the beauty of nature
The fire of her hair
Matches the passion within
Hours of preparation have made this moment possible
Her pale breasts are as white as the greek goddess’ that she represents
Her body is perfect
(Do you know how many sit-ups she had to do for this?)

Finally, his eyes meet the eyes of his lover
They are as dark as his hair
He just cannot stop staring

She tries to get his attention
But his face is stuck to that mirror
No one has beauty like his

Finally she gets his attention
With all virility he presses her naked body to his
Their bodies in tandem, only a second.

Their eyes meet it seems for the first time
He looks right through her
He finds the one he truly loves
In a mere reflection.

Sounds like a match made in heaven to me.

Very well described narcissism!

But then we do see our own reflection in a lover's eyes. It's intriguing.

Beautiful!

Love,

An interesting work of self-love meeting love of self. Very nice.

DarkenedOrange,

You’ve done Oscar Wilde proud.  Good work.  I like it loads.

I enjoyed very much the meeting of the eyes, there is a lot of sensuality there...
