Shadow Play Adult

Shadow Play Adult
________________________________

Just two shadows on the wall,
I watch as we rise and fall
each movement so divine
we have lost track of time.

Like puppets playing on a string,
we fool around, dance, and sing
two shadows playing past sunset
and still, we have no regret.

Two pair of lips embrace,
we must have a little taste
two bodies meshing into one
forever having playful fun.

We are in abstract poses,
twisting like wild roses
you fill my inner being
my breath has left me fleeting.

I gasp as the shadows fall,
slipping..sliding down the wall
layed adjacent to the floor
the sun rises, and shadows..we are no more.
