I open the door and you are always there,
embracing my body from toe to tip
kissing my bare skin
caressing my covered flesh.
Your fleeting laugh
your delicate scent
and wispy feel
sometimes contrast
with your brutality
your masculine force
your chilled slaps.
No place
no creature
on this earth does not know the face,
the sentimental flutter
the cruel destruction
that you bring.
Lover who holds me but cannot be held,
Tormentor who strikes me but cannot be struck,
breathe in passed my solidity
sail through my blackest caverns
and we’ll fly out of density (destiny?),
recreate with our love
then bring it to ruin.

Wow
Worthy of something, so at least an honorable mention! The powerful force of the wind and how it brings heartbreak comparison. Awesome. Blessings.

Love the personification! This was so deep and romantic and kind of sad too... Thank you for the fresh entry. I truly enjoyed it. Good luck.
