depths of seduction

a subtle spectre
of sweet chaos
drifts
ephemeral,
gliding tantalizingly close
over the welcome
softness of her bosom.

-----

piercing deeply
into mystery
and
wonder,
unabated flame
fuels
his craving.

-------

placid,
and
yielding to desirous touch:


her grace;


his beauty;


their finiteness; 


belie
the fury roiling within.



shadow & water.
steel & flame.
truth combines
to vanish the fear.


tempest
&
inferno
twist mercilessly.


neither to be tamed
by that gentle thing
never named,
and only whispered,
deep
in the hollows
of forgotten dreams.



if but for fate.....


if but for pride.....




if but for doors left unopened,
this fierce love
could be yours,
and mine.
