Lay your body down, lay it close to me, slide yourself into the hollow, into the shadow,
into my ache, into the velvet crying, yearning for your hot and hard perfection.

Lover…

Are you out there? Are you waiting for me? Are you in a different city by a vastly different sea? Are you bathing in the balmy glow of the moon as I warm my skin in the soft rays of the winter sun? Are you greeting a brand new day while I slide this nakedness into my feathery nest? Are you longing for me, for the intensity, the passion, the intimacy a true union can bring? Are you gazing out at this very moment wondering about the woman, the temptress you’re yet to meet?

At once
Light and shade
Vice and virtue
Your woman
Of innocence and sin

The night is cold
Its darkness lonely
The warm softness of this body
Too great to bear

Without you
Filling the space beside me
The secret ache inside me
There is nothing
Nothing
But the blue

You
Always will be
My greatest
My only
Temptation

It is only once your eyes, your lips, your hands are upon me, revealing my secrets, the mysteries of my most intimate flesh, it is only once we are joined here together, man plus woman, skin on skin, sex in sex, it is only once you bathe me in your heat, your sweat, your libations, your essence, your shimmering afterglow, does this want, this need, this lustful passion of mine make any sense.

If you were here, if you were mine, if we gave of ourselves completely, without reserve, just one more time, I would kneel before you, kiss your body with my warm skin, worship the man, the flesh hard and masculine, I would venerate, idolise, devour with soft lips, with velvet heat, with the lightest of innocence, with the darkest of sin, I would open, give, surrender myself to you as I have only dared in my dreams.

Run your hand
Skim your tips
Brush your lips
Along the daisy chain
Along these petals
Blushing, burning bright
Along the flower
This blooming sensuality
Aching to be plucked
In the hot sun’s blinding light

Caressed
By the sun
Witness
To its light
Reborn
In the glory
Marvelling
At this day
At this sweet life
