My Beautiful Enigma
For Randy Baker's Prompted Challenge
whisper a sweet serenade in my ear
as your words cascade down my body
like a waterfall of poetry
drenching me, claiming me
as your velvet embrace
draws me in
--
moan an ethereal melody to my soul
as your tones burn through my body
like a fiery, passionate ode
scorching me, owning me
as your velvet embrace
draws me in
forever lost in your labyrinth
--
my beautiful enigma

Wasted Love by Poppy
heartfelt, heartbreaking full of beautiful sadness stunning collection * Thanks for reading! Author's Notes: This is a missed-the-deadline-for-Matthew's challenge entry that I'm posting anyway.
