The Darker, Sweeter Side of the Night.

I admit I stole the title, but who could resist an opening line like that.

 

Relax.

Listen to the dark enfold us.

Velvet black arms of silk.

O, beloved, lay with me here.

Honey suckle wind caresses your body.

E’en through that I smell your beauty.

Love races my heart.

Pounds, pounds, it pounds for you.

Only for you.

Listen.

Oh, listen.

I have no dreams left.

Nightmares gone fleeting into the past.

Gone are my wishes.

Fulfilled are them all.

Fulfilled by you.

This prayer in my arms.

God is so good.

He gave me my love.

A tear wells up.

Not of sadness, my love, of praise.

Listen.

Listen, oh, listen.

Let me speak softly those words unto you again.

My beloved, relax, let the dark enfold us.

What a wonderful poem, subtle, loving, beautiful - it flows like a gentle stream.

' Relax / Listen to the dark enfold us. / Velvet black arms of silk. '

It conjurs up a picture of seclusion, privacy .. warmth.

Thank you for sharing.

You're right about the title! Magnificant! Either way, the poem was great with or without the captivating title. Wonderful work!
