In the space between moments

Aqueous twilight
Flows soft into caverns
Of steaming rage

Capricious passion
And avarice of love
Washed away

By puffs of darkness
Billowing through
Sultry night

And in gentle acquiescence
I yield to you
‘Neath velvet sky

Feeling your skin
Pressed tight
Against the coolness of mine

Devotion now crystalline
As together
We combine into one.

*Krista Knutson*

Quite the poem, sweetheart! Such beauty and simple passion. Such a tremendous scene you paint with so few words. Enjoyed this piece greatly
