A July Night

On a humid July night
Your breath caresses my cheek,
A sweet symphony traverses through my body
And it suddenly begins to speak.

I stealthily stretch my hand
Under the soft melting moonlight.
You coyly begin to open,
Urging us to transcend to a greater height.

I press my lips against yours
And you slowly begin to dissolve.
My body begins to ache for you
My soul yearning, wishing to evolve.

Amidst a seducing silence
And your tender embrace
I slowly enter you and a strange peace
Transcends on your face.

Our bodies move rhythmically
Entangled in a divine communion,
I whisper softly, “ Come my love…
Stretch till eternity this blessed union.”

Love tangles its desire
To unending horizon
The ache of each droplet
Lingers into to the ecstasy of the beloved souls
As the July night spread its wings
For magical night of love
Every cell of the humanly body transcends
In a total eternity submission
