Nocturn/Nocturne

by Inner Critic   May 11, 2005


A velvet kiss upon my lips
And you blend into the night
You smile, once, in the darkness,
To set my dreams alight.

We loved for what seemed a lifetime
Beneath a gibbous moon,
Our bodies entwined in deep embrace
That made my spirit swoon.

I thought I was your succubus
Your lust I was to draw,
But instead you were my incubus
And left me craving more.

Did it really happen?
Was the union true
Or congressus subtilis,
A dream I had of you.

The white of your smile
The touch of your lips,
The warmth of your breath
And the thrust of your hips
- Gone, but not forgotten.
