The Flame Of Night

Your feathered touch awakes my sin
Strokes heats flame across my skin
It summons the fires, which smoulders on
Just dampened down but never gone
So rising once more I ride the flame
While across your soul I seer my name
Each touch is a flame that burns bright
Igniting my skin shedding light

Your whispered breath calls to me
Summoning the fire to flare blazingly
And I always aware of your touch
Respond to that which I need so much
No sleep for me not while you’re here
I tremble to have you close and near
Each nerve tingles when we’re like this
Wrapped around the scent of bliss

Your speaking eyes just mesmerise
Calling up dreams that hypnotise
And while I’m gazing I see such heat
Inflaming my soul, speeding heart beat
Each flickering glance enflames me
Until we blaze together incandescently
Each time we burn together like this
I wonder at the magic held in your kiss

Your mouth speaks my name and I ignite
And will do while you hold the flame of night

Marsha



Tomorrow is another day I don't know what it holds
but I can face the future with courage brave and bold

Marsha,
you know it's not fair to add heat to my already hot summer's day...still I did enjoy it. Was this your birthday present to you?
Keth

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown
