Theirs

Sated for the moment
lying side by side

Talking low and staring
into each other's eyes

Hands lazily moving
touching here and then there

Warming cooling flesh
caressing faces, playing with hair

Slowly, slowly igniting
that afterglow into a flame

Until their thoughts once more
vanish into love's blaze

Writhing, twisting body parts
entangle, slick with sweat

Crying out in urgency
with every labored breath

Exploding in each other's arms
holding tight in love once again

Together, collapsing softly down
to sleep and to dream....of them.
