You snuck in under the cover of night,
wrapped in darkness with only your eyes in sight.
Boots hitting the hardwood floor,
a soft click of the door.
Rushing to the bed in a sheer white nightgown,
my heart pounds in my chest, a rhythm I hope you don't hear.
Breaths come out quick and silent like a whisper,
searching, waiting for you to find me.
To ruin me.
You round the corner and find me, a soft scream escapes my lips.
Your hands find my neck.
Your breath whispers in my ear.
I’ll place your hands on the headboard as I worship your body,
tasting your nectar,
breathing in your soul.
I want to own you as you own me,
and in this sweet surrender, we are two parts of a whole.
My name on your lips,
my taste on your tongue,
a promise of forever,
we are undone.
As quick as you were here, you were gone,
leaving me with a tingling on my lips,
an ache between my thighs,
and a whispered promise hanging like a deadly weight in the air.
My heart pounds with the emptiness of you being gone.
I’m beginning to fall.
Falling in love.
You visit me in my dreams each night you are away,
worshipping me,
tasting me,
breathing me in.
And each reality,
each dream,
leaves me with the same whispered plea:
I want to own you as you own me,
and in this sweet surrender, we are two parts of a whole.
My name on your lips,
my taste on your tongue,
a promise of forever,
we are undone.
You love me as I'm beginning to love you.
We are forever intertwined as one.
You will always be the life my soul needs,
the ache my soul craves.
I’ve denied this far too long.
I knew from the first time you entered my life,
wrapped in darkness,
sheathed in shadows,
peering at me with those hauntingly dead eyes.
