What Is a Sin

slanting sun
kissing the ocean
her face torn
uncertainty
wide open eyes
arched eyebrows
an old bridge
life is beautiful
we were drinking
fermented red grapes

the passion the warmth
hidden the fire under the 
clear skin
i could feel i am resisting

temptation is passion
a fire wild fire of
yellowish red 
spreading
the need 
to unite
what is sin
is love a sin
we are scared to love

genital fire
nocturnal ascensions
in the empowering garden
of darkness
tiny lights of the dying city
across the near silent
lakes
we are confessing to  each other
open yet controlled
what is a sin

Sexual desire is normal not a sin, just marry her and enjoy life, commitment is the key to happiness. Well written.
