The Voyeur

Audio

She was but a shadow behind the shade

and he watched her every night as she bathed

Her silhouette moving gracefully

for his eyes only...so beautifully~

He was her tall and handsome voyeur

and watched as she was completely bare_

Her image danced upon his mind

as he sipped feverishly his crimson wine_

He moved closer to the window

  so he could see her in the flesh...

his mysterious dark shadow

and her voluptuous breast~

And to his utter amazement

  within the ebb and flow of night

(turned out to be only)

a seductive flame of candlelight.

This poem is lovely dear, sounds like the story about David and Bethsheba if my sunday school classes serve me right. Very nicely done and I enjoyed reading

Hahah, now that is a twist. Through my mangled mind, I saw your poem in a darker sense, with disgusting acts and pervertness. Though the idea itself was stationed near the back of my mind. This piece seemed more playful and provocative in a way, and I definitely don't hate the twist. Much Enjoyed. :)

[SyberRose]

haa...I'm glad you liked this one..its all in the mind as in the voyeurs mind ha...Rose

[Aziz Luther]

Aw! U led me on until the ending where I wanted to be disappointed but such beautiful words and such craftiness that I couldn't help but love it.

[SyberRose]

Thank you so much for reading Aziz...i'm happy you enjoyed...Rose

Reminds me of an Alfred Hitchcock thriller, always with a twist! A little different from you SyberRose, though excellent nonetheless !
