Rapturous Climax

When a silent bolt of lightning 
thunderously strikes my heart,
A flash of darkness sparkles
like an echo reverberating 
in the brimming void and
wraps me in a swathe of emptiness. 

When silence melts into rivulets 
dissipating into 
the foreboding clouds of nothingness,
The engulfing darkness 
lights my way bringing 
my beloved and me into 
a blazing threshold of lovemaking. 

Hand in hand
heartbeat to heartbeat
together as one 
we step up to
the brink of a fiery volcano.

Our unbridled longing 
nudges us into taking 
the headlong plunge
locked together in a
chilling flame of passion
forged into 
an inseparable conflagration
and being spewed out
in a gushing river of bliss.
