Decaying Love Erases

Her hair so soft and shining, 
gleaming in the bright moonlight. 
Beckons my touch, calls, come touch me, 
but not just there for I want you everywhere. 
Take me so gently, this morsel of lustfulness, 
swept across  the room, to thy lofty bed.
 Heavy breathing abounds us, a melancholy waltz, 
while naught amiss be founds us, fog all around us. 
Thy misty haze calm and bliss, splendid in it’s own way, 
nonchalantly covers the room. 
Exhalations a hundredfold, time consumes life, 
we are one at last, infinite oasis swoon across our faces,
 idleness naught but grandeur, 
merest whim of your perfume,
 your fleece so fair. 
Decaying love erases.
