from the bed
she motions me closer,
her dark eyes
alluring
and deep
like uncharted
oceans which pull
me in.
willingly, i throw
caution to the wind
and dive
head-first
into a world
without gravity,
lost in each fall
and rise
as her body
weaves its own spell
flooding all
my senses.
and as i drift
upon the shallow
waves
of bated breath
beneath an august
moon, wonder why
i was granted
such a favor.
