Breathe

Breathe my name on the wind and you’ll find me In those soft shivers That murmur in the dark That rustling whisper of laughs We tried so hard to conceal As we tiptoed out into to the moonlight Sigh my name under the stars and you’ll find me Where we wrestled and rolled in passions embrace under the lunar light in her shimmering velvet skies Utter my name on bated breath and I will find you Feeling you gasp as I take your hand in mine Your sparkling eyes … Your triumphant grin, your hearts rat-a-tatting drumbeat roll You guessed you may find me, where you never had before Under your skin you felt me, Felt my breath on your neck as we shared sweet secrets, As I felt you breathe in my gasp that first time, and utter out a gentle whisper of reassurance on a blissful sigh ….a murmur of devotion as you reached your peak, tumbling into ecstasy Waking to the first rays of dawn, sunrise never better than in your arms hand in hand we stammered our farewells… I carried you with me in my heart… as you have carried me under your skin … yes I remember after all this time I still feel you … as you feel me A slow smile and all angst disappears we melt to one, united in embrace This gentle spark igniting a furnace of passion soaring on fiery wings of ardour’s clashing titans Through fervors blazing heat only one thought cuts the suffocating intensity …..Breathe… 03.05.2021 Writing Prompt - Breathe - Poetry Contest Sponsored by Constance La France (Prompt Words: Breathe, Utter, Sigh, Whisper, Murmur, Gasp)
