"Ascendance"

A Poem by Kenny L. Mitchell

“Ascendance”

 

 

Your chocolate brown skin

Melts meticulously into mine

Sending ripples across my disposition

 

The soft kisses of summer

Echo along the breeze

Heartbreakingly familiar

Resonating in my mind

 

Your eyes dazzling bright

Enchanting light pools

Against the celestial constellations

 

Butterly kisses

Are delicately laid

Along the arch of your back

 

Two hearts beat as one

As they fall anxiously

Against the soft silken sheets

 

As passion reignites our souls

We explore each other

Taxing physical manifestations

To the limit of human endurance

 

Primitive dark thrusts

Entail the hidden message

The sweet ritual of sublime seduction

 

Passing through heavenly gates

We descend the lofty heights

With a moan less painful

 

As the sheets rise & fall

The damp moist earth

Catches our decadent descent

 

The raindrops of summer

Falls across the eastern glass

Flashing false shadows

Against paper thin walls

 

Your eyes rest easy

Between heaven & now

My heart beats easier

From the presence of your love

You Sir have the ability to make love lyrically come alive by means of your pen! I am in complete awe of this masterful write. I could "feel" the passion & sensuality in your verses as it was absorb through my eyes and trickled down to this hopelessly romantic heart of mine.

Excellent use of imagery & metaphors....simply sensational piece. Bravo!
