Lost Forever In a Portrait of Love

“Pristine your pose, exposed artistic allure” Canvas on easel waits patiently Naked in formless thought Inviting rapture’s brush strokes “White on white destined pleadings” Visions engulf watercolor yearnings Blending passion’s tints… Seductive bristled breaths fall “Soft curves fill unframed desires” Olive skin seeps semi-gloss wishes Hues of fire fed glazing Smooth along tender tan lines “Valleys of bliss penetrate oiled needs” Mahogany eyes captivate Pearled glints shimmer silently Beckoning in secretive glances “Portal’d palettes draw on my sight” Crimson lips in whimpered pout Satin pillow’d arching designs Whisper me my dreams “Their touch breaks my will” As I paint you, I linger in lust Overwhelmed by your beauty Falling helplessly into this masterpiece “And we become one via art” Saturated in drop cloth drippings Sighs of fevered temptations rise Releasing abstract movements “Acrylic serenity, vibrant achings” Melting in chromatic motion Collapsing among overspray imagination Embracing iridescent ending “Lost forever in a portrait of love”
