Pledge

Lucid in my reasoning, I pay close attention to the slippery softness of your pleading~

Pretending to disguise that the fire is cool to the touch but burns hot in our courage, I watch you squirm and release a comforting sigh~

Reach for me…. Open my desires…. Enslave me…. Give me authority to proceed~

Our minds incriminate our actions, we are summoned by destiny, biting at the vibration of our vow, litigating the cravings that cannot be quenched~

No more broken promises, our imprisonment is no longer required, we are free to be alive~

DewKissed

Oh smooth villain of my existence, you wound me with your gaze~

Strike me with your intimate murmur, as you request my obedience~

As you travel thru me letting me request my fate, I beg in my resistance only to challenge your bidding~

Drink of me as I welcome your thirst, untangle my hesitation with fixed purpose, you speak softly “Do not be a hostage to your past.” ~

My eyes gleam and widen with the Moon’s light, mischievous and looking for a thrill, the stars explode through my vision, my ears pounding with the sincerity of your breath~

I am tight with the anticipation of our next move, my fingers wonder through the tendrils of your thoughts, tenderness…the motion bringing us into the moment, dewkissed by the dawn, we slip into madness known only by the frenzied amusement released from our laughter~
