Falling in Love

Fall and Fall First rush of blood: Your heart knew me. As I floated face down in myself, clutching at the world with a baited smile. Your eyes invited me. Beautifully engaging mine in a graceful conversation of looks. A home fire flickered at last in the dark, as I passed my heart into the glow. Your tongue received me. Passionate and probing; wrapping me in a tartan shawl. I sighed, but could do nothing at all, but fall and fall and fall. Your body entertained me. It entertained us both; stroking and bending us into our favourite secrets. Two rhythms pulsing toward one life. Realisation: You have given me everything. A heart to cry with, a soul to love with a smile to reply with a reason to live, a future. Can I give you my love? It is all that I have, but I give it wholly. Now and then again and again.

I love this one: reminds me of the tango! Deeply moving, sensual lines; well done.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
