Two years ago, I wrote this as a Valentine day's note for someone whom I was close to at that time.
We shared something that made me look forward to each day.
There were storms, there were tornadoes, there were calm seas, there was cool breeze.
Two years later....
We are now restricted to a very tepid hello.
Atmosphere is stifled, the weather too not a conversation starter anymore.
There are no butterflies, there are no chills up my spine, there is no anticipation of something exciting.
Just like everything else, everyone else, it was good while it lasted.
Then, it was special and meant for only one to read.
Today, with the stars having burnt out, am ready to share.
Once…
I would like to lie down next to you.
The outdoors with us.
Clear skies, stars shining bright
we make out patterns, we draw our own in the sky.
I would like to lie in the crook of your arm.
My head nestling in the strong shoulders
Against your chest
Taking in deeply the smell that I’ve got familiar with.
We talk about the sounds of the night
I would like to let my arms lie on your strong chest
The ones I have felt against mine
Feel your heart beating
As you hold me close
Silently gazing into the darkness beyond
I would like to whisper your name
Softly, gently
waking you up with my fingers
making circles on your nipples
till I hear you whisper my name
I would like to let my legs slide against yours
Nudging them apart
Feeling restless, yet at peace
My hands itching to feel more
And getting more
I would like to hear you moan
Aching, fully awake
It feels good, it feels right
Your name sounds like a prayer
My lips crave to feel yours
I would like to feel your lips
Passionately
Deeply, hungrily
Lovingly
Every move filled with a need
I would like to tenderly kiss you
Softly, gently,
Every possible way
Till your body feels loved
And yearning for more
I would like to open up
Let the silence
Let the darkness
Let the calmness
Engulf us
I would like to feel the cool of the night
Turn into heat
Our bodies entwined,
Our breath labored
Our heart beat as one
I would like to become one
Till we feel the rhythm
Follow our beat
Screaming your name
Hearing mine from afar
I would like the silence
The calmness
The peace
The oneness
Just once………
