Shore Leave

Shore Leave

As I sink my toes deeply into the warm sand
I hold ever closer her warm moist delicate fingertips 
into my hand
I hear the thunderous roar of the ocean as it thrusts 
itself onto the shore 
The smell of aged grapes on your breath
makes me drunk with your lust
My heart aching for your intimacy ever more
I know in my heart this is but a fleeting moment in time
As the waves carry out my emotions out to sea
In this moment you are mine
Mine to love as fishes love the sea
you are my sweet delicate fish 
that I long to be hooked to me
the world disappears the very moment I gaze into the depth of your eyes
that sweet complex grape kiss 
Will either make a man of me or be my demise
I long for air as if I am plunged deep within the ocean
I gasp for air as I am overcome with emotion
She giggles sweet giggles like singing birds at play
But I know this moment will not last as I stare deeply at the waves
Ssshhhh!! She whispers on those sweet grape stained lips
“You are mine my sweet puppy, I own you with my kiss!”
