The Bodies Rush (Poem)

Truly, madly, deeply

These words are whispered oh so sweetly

Caressing over my tender ears

Breaking through my barriers

I feel my sorrows slip away

Like the sand along the bay

I curl my fingers through your hair

A sigh escapes me as I catch your stare

You start by placing a kiss upon my lips

Then slowly trace a line behind your fingertips

A shudder runs right through my core

As I moan for something more

Your hands journey lower in response to my need

Causing us both to fall to our knees

And from there our control completely slips away

Followed by any caution, which seems to go astray

All that’s left is our savage need

Filled with wanting, burning, and a selfish greed

Clothes are ripped away, exposing glistening flesh

Already showing the heat from our bodies rush

And as our bodies join and our souls combine

Our silent screams are heard through time

Each separate rhythm is joined into a single song

Complementing each other as we move along

With nails, teeth, and a quickening speed

Our very souls shake with our growing need

I feel your rhythm quickly change

Becoming more fevered with a demanding rage

This rage engulfs all of my senses

Conquering all of my defenses

This building pleasure, with just a hint of pain

Crashes over me as I go wildly insane

At this point our rhythms hit their peak

Holding onto you I let myself go free

We fly so high into the night

Our inner heat, our only light

And as we’re rocked with a final shudder

We fall back inside each other

A satisfied exhaustion takes over us

A lingering shiver from our sated lust

And as I lay upon your chest

Listening to your heart slowing as you rest

I sigh and smile, closing my eyes

Holding onto the waning sensations still riding me inside
