With Eyes Softly Closed

Wild love, is there anything you cannot force upon the human heart? - Virgil

With eyes softly closed

I still taste you ...

the lingering scent

of you

the wispy strands

of your hair on my cheek ,

the soft and gentle rhythm

of heartbeats -

mere moments before

locked as one

roaring and surging

now nestling gently

calmly

entwined

inside and out

still shuddering

from your touch

With eyes softly closed

I still feel the heat -

sheer animal flame

primal fire

released yet encompassing

quenched yet...

ever hungry

the effort of merging

sweat's sweet sting

the timeless moment

the 'afters' glow

the infinite softness

of you ...

and me

and such a fullness

I've come to know .

With eyes softly closed

a single tear flows

the indescribable emotion

released from within

as the eyes slowly open

and find yours

looking in...
