"Rhapsody..."

Erotica IS in the mind of the beholder...
pieces set a mood, a whimsical, wishfull,
enrapturing, and attention capturing
time... what people DO with it...well THAT
is another story all its own... yes?

"Rhapsody..."

Was it you outside my door...
the footsteps soft and swift
fleeting and paused
and swift once more...

I swore the knob turned
but you didn't enter
and I waited and waited
breathless

Somewhen my eyes closed
and the feel of you
the presence of you
the TOUCH found me
there
laying uncovered
and somehow BARE
so far beyond mere naked
and I wasn't afraid
didn't move to hide or cover

and I remembered to breathe
and my chest heaved
rising tight and taut
my heart beat and raced
and FLEW through the night
and I KNEW
KNEW
the fingertips tracing so softly
up and down my flanks weren't mine
and my very soul GLOWED
can you understand???

Exhales and inhales merged as one
lips - softer than silk - flowed and floated
everywhere...EVERY - WHERE!
and dear GOD... the sheer HEAT
building and growing and flowing within
EXPLODED...
and I fell and fell and
fell
into your arms
and was somehow
home...
again.
