Poem a day challenge...only 5 days to go!
























Day 25 Prompt: Event

You stepped out of the
shadows
eyes cool
professional
your face a mask
of self protection

I saw through your
game of intimidation

your eyes said one thing
your body begged another

you were not immune to
the heat of the moment

as your hands closed
gently around my throat
and your words whispered
through my mind

I knew I hadn't
misunderstood
your true intention

traces of your scent
still fill my room
and
tomorrow
brings with it the
possibility of your return

~~


Love,

  3. What I like here is the hint of danger and the aptitude for rough encounters leaving the narrator desiring more...limits with lines not crossed...
