Midnight Kisses
Midnight Kisses
Date: March 12,2011
Breathing slow, breathing deep
‘Cross the sea of slumber creep
Mists aglow with hidden fire
Sheets the bed with fresh desire
In the shadows of midnight's keep
The blaze is quickened, in flurried sleep
A haunting breath of flash and flame
Creeping ‘round the window pane
Scents that stain the pillow case
On the river of silence race
Swallowed up by raging need
Storms the crown, to plant the seed
Behind the shade of fevered dreams
Piercing truth, in stillness screams
Secrets locked beneath the skin
In visions ripe to trickle in
Broken whispers flutter by
Painting promise on the sky
Naked flesh begins to yearn
As passion flares, the body burns
Trapped in a subconscious mind
The light of day will never find
A fire as hot as is this bliss
Drowning in a midnight kiss
