Feeling the Space Around You

A Move to Lovemaking

By Dwayne O ConnorPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Darkness is not without it's benefits

There moves a presence within

A glancing of a charge that feels like matter

The blindness is only my lack in light

I can feel form in every breath

The breath is my own and the breadth of the air around me

It moves not against my skin, but with me, an extension of me

A flow that, like a stream, builds to a river and then an ocean

All based on my ability to feel it all, perceiving the signals given to me

I can accept it all, maybe the cost will be great, but I feel it will hold me

I do now smell the air, as it glances my space

It is a musky sweetness, a churning ensues my insides, drawing me in

I feel the depth of my breathing, the rate increasing, like the air is heavy

My body wants to move closer to what is calling out to me

I feel the electricity in the air, a sudden touch of another solid body

Before I reach the touch of another, I am pulled away from reaching out

Instead, a slow breath comes to my face, I still cannot see

A warm fluid touches my lower lip, its smooth and full of scents

pleasurable to my senses and tastes like an embrace of love

I cannot still partake in the full share but turned by a touch to my chest

A sweet silent, graceful touch that reaches inside my shirt, and glances skin

A smell of frankincense engulfs the room, the covering of my eyes lessened

The room is dim and glowing in the embrace of candlelight

She is here with me, only thinking of my pleasure, her face beauty

her body, perfection

My hand reaches her and gently touch her lips, I kiss one

I gently put my fingers between the others lower on her structure

I feel the same fluid and wetness that touched my lips before, I kiss both

I embrace her with the full love of what she and I both desire

We are forever at home with one another
