Sampling desires, ~ basted with arousal ~
Are what the night's occurrences allow.
Commencing with sighs gentle caresses-
Our clothes shed unbridled upon the floor.
Trembling hands urging our bodies closer
As fingers unwrap cloth about our flesh.
Tempest's progression ~ restraint uncontrolled ~
As iron headboard throbs pulsating marrow.
We breathe exuberance of exhaustion,
Entwined of depleted-twisted linen.
Souls begging recurrent performances;
Fingers solicit sensual summons.
Lusts tidal torrents gather about us,
Tsunami pleasure draws back, mounting shoals.
Collapsing into moistness of yearning.
~Flooded by back wash of erotica~
Let not explicit words steal thy beauty,
Explore those suggestions of suggestions.
~ Bespeaking loves soliloquy of heart ~
Tenderly ensnaring time and distance.
As final candle of the sky winks out,
Peer deeply into my questioning soul.
Glimpsing what torrid thoughts of you hath wrought
Upon angst and adoration perplexed.
For thou art the timeless reconstruction,
Of my wistful soul's sought-after answers.
Thus, in hushed darkness, reach out and softly
Touch my aspiring dreams ~ for they are you ~

I am not too keen on the old English, what era are we in? lolol...(that's a personal thing, though] ...but I love all the imagery, esp. the depleted, twisted linens...a very fine touch to the poem...and what a beautiful last line...thanks so much for entering...

Well this is dirty...HAHA
"basted with arousal"
Very food-y.
'unbridled' is a kick-ass word, though I don't care for the sexual context you used it in...
"Tempest's progression ~ restraint uncontrolled ~"
This could apply to way more than sex.
LOOOOVE the word 'tempest'.
Ahh, I'm too lazy to tell you the other parts I liked.
Good luck
