Awakening

Stirred by the breath of morning
Warmed by the kiss of the sun
I wake amid a tangle of sheets
The gentle weight of your arms around me
A mind clouded by a torrid night
Evening storms
White lightning casts shadows upon the walls
Two lovers locked
A passionate struggle
Hypnotizing, mesmerizing
Blinding
Deep thunder in the distance
Shaking the earth below
Weakening limbs
Melting hearts
Tears flow with rain
Blessed by the god Hypnos
Darkness descends
Sweetening dreams
Until Dawn rises

Drowsy and numbed by ecstasy, we drift to sleep. Miles apart, we are brought together by a dream...
