And the Storm Raged

The storm began inside and out

With a crash of thunder

Two souls so in sync in this present moment

Weather patterns followed the movements of their bodies

She placed her electricity in places that welcomed her

A magnetic pull

A body speaking to her with no words

She listened intently

Big, open bay windows lay the backdrop

A cool breeze blows in with

Wetness on its heals, rain and sweat mixing

Cooling and heating exposed flesh

Scents of saturated earth and leaves fill the room

Intoxicating the minds of two lust-driven loves

The breeze roared with their exhales of passion

Blowing away all insecurity, inviting the storm even further inside

She pawed around frantically grasping for something to ground her

Electricity flowing through her veins needing an outlet

The storm rages mercilessly

She held her lover and felt the cool breeze

Rain and wind, push and pull

Their bodies knew each other so well on this night of

First meeting

Silence

The eye of the storm right above them now

Breathing held and feverish grasping for ground

Wind building around them with each sway

This hurricane of pleasure

Dissolved in an explosion of release

The earth shook and shattered those big bays

A quake that sent shockwaves through their bodies

The room and storm fell still and dark

She awakened to the sound of rain

Again a storm greeted her eyes

A reminder of the night

Her lover woke beside her

What luck we have to sleep and rise to a rainstorm

The universe’s thank you

For moving mountains in her absence
