| Glow |
| Early morning light peeked in through the window and crept beneath my cotton sheets. Dreamless sleep came to an end; I slithered out of bed and proceeded as usual, brushing, washing, dressing- interrupted by a surprise hidden in the mirror. I could see the sun trying to slip back into the horizon, outdone by the light of my reflection I woke up this morning with a glow- you know that sexy, sex glow- the kind of glow only your love can bestow? As I walked down the street, I imagined the reddest rose petals cushioning my every step. People were whisperin', starin' and gawkin' baskin' vicariously in the radiance of your effect on me. The looks on their faces unashamedly wishin' for just a taste of what is uniquely you and I. I walked on, head held high, wearing your love with a careful blend of pride and arrogance. Thoughts of you warmed me from the inside out. Loving you feels natural to me, meant to be the two of us close as a mountain stream flowing over smooth, mossy pebbles- like me wrapping you up in a velveteen blanket of stars sharing the light I feel whenever you are near- we glow like orange embers at the source of a flame. Luxurious love escapes from you with a gasp and a whisper of my name. nothing exists but you and I and this indescribable vibe We revel in the silken excess....liquid love spills over spent bodies, seeping into thirsty souls. Beaming in the moment, your heart touches mine and I begin to glow. RLT �2000 |
