Fireworks
The humid July mist of the evening
Falls gently on our skin,
Leaving a sticky sensation to the touch.
As night time falls
We eagerly wait
For the excitement.
As the Fourth lights up the sky
You and I spark the flame
That only two can make.
It is in this flame I shoot off;
A spark only seen,
A spark only felt,
A spark only received
By you.
Fireworks shoot deep inside you,
Making it almost too much to bare.
And yet you scream and beg for more.

I love the deep impact of the metaphoric uses sprinkled throughout. To me, it really sets a tone and elicits such a deeply erotic feel without being blatantly graphic —speaks directly to your talent and poetic style.
I was enthralled, reading!
Happy 4th, indeed... lol... *wink 🎇

The subject of fireworks makes a topical read to an Englishman in the run up to Halloween and Guy Fawkes Night (November 5th), acknowledging your poem's Independence Day setting.
