Soft shadows on the wall
mimic as we rise and fall,
thrown from candles here and there,
light within our lovers' lair,
animal pleasure scents the room
eyes speak of lust abloom,
hands slide and grasp and seek
mouths kiss and bite and wreak
havoc on the sweet flesh above
and whisper promises, chains of love,
sweet release has come to call,
and in tandem sigh, we sprawl
wrapped in each other's quivering
limbs; in the candlelight shivering.
