A Breath of Air

A Breath of Air

By Dawn Collette Mclaughlin

Breathing in a freezing air 
As it passes lips warming 
Till the freshness stills 
In a heated meet 
Collided entwined melts. 

Blood rushes throw his veins 
Beating drums of his heart 
Sinking in a breathless pulse 
Eyes still parallel each other. 

She surfs the tides slowly 
Embracing every ripple of this ocean 
No fear of drowning forbidden sin 
Holding the hands clinching tight 
Sometimes the soft wave 
Turns to a torrent a tidal wave.


Dawn Mclaughlin. @Dawn2013.
