Bliss

Sweet seduction
Passion
Heat
Like a train gaining momentum
Slowly you realize
You are speaking through touch
Questions and Answers
Mischievous laughter disguised as breath
Like a bird it takes flight
Beating its' wings
Faster
Soaring
Then pausing to glide
And feel the heat of the sun
To smell the air
Free

It is beyond this

It is tender, lingering kisses
And the soft fragrance of skin we begin to notice
As we surrender
Like a coaster we climb to the top of the hill
And as we look out over the abyss below
We pause

Click click click

In the blink of an eye we search our souls for memories
Desires, regrets and fear
Then we put up our hands
Take one last breath
Exhale
And let go

It is beyond this

Waves that pass from your toes to your spine and up your neck
As your eyes clothes you return flames down the same path
There are no lies here
No secrets
Like one beautiful note in the distance
You both hear it
So you play it
And add chords, drums, horns, strings, melody
As the music echoes and builds in a crescendo
Swelling to the finale
Fortisimo
The sounds sustaining through two bodies entwined
Humming like tuning forks
Twisting, shifting, relaxing, sleep eminent
As you fight drifting off to sleep just yet
Somewhere between awake and sleep is a kind of twilight
Where time stands still

It is here

That we find Bliss
Unable to stop touching
Listening to the sound of heartbeats and breath
Until they meet in unison
You begin to drift
As you cradle each other mind, body and soul
There together in the darkness of sleep
Until time begins again
And you are there to greet each other
As you return from that place where souls met
And where they find rest
