you spurn ... I burn your touch is aphotic nirvana a lurid and misty Elysium, pure you feign a diabolic Madonna a virtue sardonic, seductive and sure black flame and a chaste allure oh, how we yearn ... you peel ... I reel your eyes draw me in like a child lips dark and dewy as sugarplums, fresh you tear me, chaotic and wild fingertips etch their flames on my flesh limbs swim the sheets and thresh oh, how we feel ... you sigh ... I die the cry of your whispers, forbidden soft, sexy secrets push blood to my bones your deep, darkened wishes, unbidden a 'chanson érotique' mel’dy of moans such dulcet and devilish tones oh, how we fly ... you sway ... I play my hand to your glove, rapture-laden sword from its scabbard, scoundrel of sin perfecting the shape you were made in to absorb my obsession, as downward I spin your moon and our madness begins oh, how we stray ... replay ... you beguile to resist, yet ignite my flame shed your raiment, and bewitch my brain enkindle my ear, betray soft, my name oh, move on me yet, indulge the game be seductress of my shame ... the opiate for my pain ... darkness ... to my flame. * this is a very complex form I created called “KASSALDRUNE” *

I remember that you liked this, one of my first forays into the darkly sensual ... it was a fun write, but not a genre that everyone enjoys. Blessings, friend! :-)
