Shadows of Candlelight

You haunt me as a ghost haunts the night

Taunting me with your image

In the shadows of candlelight~

Feel me make love to you as wax drips slow

Down the shaft of the candle to the base below~

Feel the heat of the flames flicker in the night

Burning within blue veins where red blood ignites~

Dance with the shadows that tangle upon the wall

In and out and all around, tantalize as they call~

Let me be your lover for just a little while

Within the depths of candlelight

Let me be your Queen of the Nile~

Let me feel your eyes cast upon my skin

Let me feel your mind caressing fantasies within~

passion, though may differ from various minds, ignites the same fervor. the intoxicating effect of euphoria when the mind recalls what made the heart flutter. it may be sensual, but i find the yearning in the verses more than just a bodily want, but a longing to be with the person one is fond of most.

An amazingly sensual piece, I felt my temp rising and the beads of sweat get excited as the fantasy was created before my very eyes with this wonderful poem, you have the gift for mixing words that tantalize and delight on any given night. Imagery jumped out and surrounded me with tenderness. Bravo, well done and shared.
