Silent As A Whisper

Morning light breaks through my trance    
as loving words float off into the wind  
like a kaleidosope of butterflies    
flashing before my eyes  
    
too many forgotten words    
long the euphoria of your first caress    
crave your eager fingers playing    
along my nerve endings    

a magical moonlight sonata    
lain out on a black and white keyboard  
   
droplets of musky perspiration    
trail, glistening, down my chest    
those precious lips follow    
into the valley of desire    
   
a blue haze of passion    
thrown into never ending heights    
   
side by side two lost souls    
passing thru the night    
—grasping—
seeking solace one more time      
holding each other tight    
   
silent as a whisper I slipped away    
not looking back at your slumbering form    
I knew I could not stay in the safety of your arms    
I could not endanger your heart again
