Naked Limbs
As twilight approached I felt her loosening embrace
After a night filled with cuddling her shadowy face
My heart beat with passion as I bathed in her charms
Her elusive caress not quite real in my arms
I thought I heard her whisper as I longed for her lips
It was only the wind, another phantom kiss
My pulse begin to quicken as she rose from the bed
The thought of her leaving filled my mind with dread
Naked limbs swayed against the day's first rays
The tree branch outside my window on full display
Crescent moon and fading stars bowed to dawn...
Against hues, tones, morning.
