As Seen On Tv
desire stung their senses
and lust filled up the air
need wafted down the corridor
and love was raw and bare
sensation teased the prickling nerves
as lips brushed silken skin
which drew to life the burning heat
and released them both from sin
the persistent and erratic beats
contrasted with their heart
which were poured in every shuddered breath
and turned it into art
exploring hills and concaves
draped ‘round but flesh and bone
yet fire in the fingertips
breached walls of solid stone
beasts clawing from the inside out
as thunder claps and roars
steady groping tries to catch
the euphoria that soars
and spiking through the passion
the jagged edged cries
recoil and constrict between
the contact of their eyes
two bodies tangled helplessly
so knotted into one
speech was lost beneath the weight
of the ever setting sun
stillness touched their heavy forms
fallen first from bliss
ensconced in warmth and mutual sleep
and caressed each with a kiss
