against taunts of pleasures
seduced by pain.
Yellow, floating through
in a moment of fear.
A cry out in warning...
yet quickly dismissed
in the solace of his touch.
Painting the canvas
with the tease of cool ice
followed by warm breath
on flesh of trembling desire.
Agony sends her mind reeling
off the cliff of total rapture.
Ache consumes her whole;
provoking whimpers of pure bliss.
Bringing the taste
of his control replete
in her submission.
Hours pass in a fleeting minute.
Her past and future flash before her eyes.
Ashes from burning embers of carnal heat
fall softly to the comfort of his arms...
and she thinks,
maybe, just maybe,
she could get use to this.

I apologise for my delay in judging due to illness. Master Ktulu has restarted the Erotic Challenge so I am judging this as an ordinary contest.
A lovely use of the words given and a well developed and well structured poem. The sensual imagery flows beautifully from line to line.
Well done
