Summers Heat

Shedding wintry garments of solitude As our affinity for passion grows The yearn of our flesh and hearts, raw and crude Were like heat persuading us from those clothes We bathed in the sun, relished the hot kiss All while wishing that it was each others In gazes we saw our desires likeness And over time we grew into lovers That season engendered such a strong thirst That kisses felt in our mouths like hard rain Until the dams of self control all bursts And you became mine, and I yours, to claim You became my friend, companion, desire We were swept away in sweet summer fire (6/13/20)
