[bodytext] => A perfect night for a long rest, yet I didn't sleep well last night It was the heat from your skin that kept me awake, Not at all like the warm summer air but hot and burning as the sun rising off your body like incense in prayer growing, smoldering, spilling onto me like want Above us, the untiring moon searches for the arms of Orion before the deep blues and purples of night mix into obsidian, hiding the constellations behind a black, velvet sky Colorless and starless, every strand of evening lays still Except the rise and fall of your chest Your breath rolling soft circles in the air as our bodies bend and arch together to find their fit You lift my face to meet yours...lips for tasting Your scent fills everything A mix of earth and lavender and rain lingers on my tongue like carmelized sugar or guilt You are on my skin and in my hair - inescapable; inexplicable; undeniable What is left of the night around us grows thin, and wrapped in the silent, sweeter spaces between us, I finally fall asleep [comments] => 1 [counter] => 146 [topic] => 2 [informant] => LenaGirl [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )
