ECSTASY.

Tossing aside the white veil

And with it the burden of singlehood

I thought of the rough road to bliss

I arrived battered and bloodied

But wrapped in his arms

The pains were gone

He helped me out of the gown

His hands awoke deep feelings

I felt his lips on my neck

And a million sweet sensations

Coursed through my spine

Dam bursting, waters gushing forth

Kisses broke the silence

Hands travelled the smooth, soft terrain 

Bodies glued together, moving as one

We swam in endless affection

Pleasure unleashed generously 

Two hearts lost in time

Alas! An outburst of smile from Mother Earth

Hearts flutter, joy erupts, souls bond 

Gently he whispers my name

I respond softly, relaxing in his arms

The chiming of the clock sealed our innocent chuckles
