You

[soulfir3]

Standing before you -
I shed this gown of self protection
worn for so long
discarding it's prison like embrace
and allowed you close

As I trembled with fear -
and desire
I held still under that first,
almost invisible touch
lightnening coursed through veins

Watching your stealthy approach -
eyes wandered around the room
counting, invisible steps
between you and I and the bed
between you and I and the door

Feeling you before you felt me -
an embrace, longing and needing
a kiss, which left one humming
night came in a swift drawing of drapes
under interlude of moonlight

Laying beside you -
giving my heart from inside it's emerald case
inside your palms, fingers wrapping
light but firm, you encased me with your arms
holding me closely, inside your own protective sheath

Thank you David, it's an older piece and I thought I'd give it a bit of an airing, see how it was received.

absolutely gorgeous .. the intimacy and opening up is all but terrifying in its totality, it honesty ... actually, this is as emotionally awesome to read as the experience described. Sebsual and pretty hot ... but still scary *wry grin*

"between you and I and the bed
between you and I and the door"

Loved those lines ... the tension of stay or flee ... superb!

much love,
