Your feet noiselessly step over the wood floor
White and red rose petals flutter away, creating a path
The soft glow of candles create a halo around a figure lying on a white cushion
Arms and legs outstretched, dangling, long and sleek
Chest rises and falls effortlessly, capturing the room’s breath
You come to your knees before the pale figure
Lips full and glossed crimson, as if the heart had bled onto them
A casqued of golden hair spills behind from a crown of curls
Eyes green with deep pupil pools of the mysterious darkness
You run your fingers along the leg nearest you
Calf sculpted and hard, feet adorned with black heels that glitter
Body swathed in an ebony gown, gossamer fabric clinging close
Lips open to bleed you a request, whispers shimmer in the candlelight
You lean in closer to taste the stained strawberries moving in a murmur
The lidded eyes glimmer and taunt, knowing the secret at hand
The nostrils flair at the rustic male scent swaying through the air
A harpist plucks at the strings beckoning the enticing aura
You whisper into the elfish ears twitching and giggling
A sea of white cream ripples and flows under dark travelers wandering
The travelers circle a deep perforation, stopping to toy with a mole
Crossing through a valley, a mountain on either side
Your fingers lightly trace the lightest skin too precious for the sun to see
Sticky sweet lilac spray dances through the air, the candle wax a stir
Humming sweet sunrise flickers from the floor
Red and white swirl tickling the flames
You melt into the figure as the wax is dripping so slowly until the air reverberates shrilly
The white cloud slowly inches its way north, taking with it a brewing storm
Crashing light upon dark the colors romping, trying to mix
Air grabbing from the room quickly and often
Your shuddering breath extinguishes small halos about the room
Violet, grey, and blue curling from fallen angels
Explosions of noise crack and split the air
Long thin knives leave rose colored lines
You pull away from the figure, finally, at last
Tiny flowers still dangle over little cups full of wax
Petals cease waltzing and the room steals a silent breath
The white cushion is still and the pale figure collapsed

What incredibly vivid imagery Kitty-
I only regret that I haven't read more
of your work-
I echo wizards sentiments...in that
I found this to be most erotic
and metephorically fertile:
"Your fingers lightly trace the lightest skin too precious for the sun to see
Sticky sweet lilac spray dances through the air, the candle wax a stir
Humming sweet sunrise flickers from the floor
Red and white swirl tickling the flames"
..I absolutely love those words..
they're perfect...just perfect-
Truly,
Billy
