The Thunder and The Rain
Another gust of wind rattles the windows
Interrupting the constant reassuring sound of the rain
Thunder rolls in the distance mimicking your laugh as
I startle and wrap my arms around you tighter, head on your chest.
Sleep tries to take over, our hearts beat in sync…
With each other, with the Thunder, with the Rain.
Unable to stop touching, caressing,
Our lips find each other once again.
Your fingers run through my hair, pulling my head back
Exposing my neck to your lips.
Passion once again rolling through my body
Like the Thunder, like the Rain.
Staring into each others eyes, falling deeper,
No longer afraid to let go.
Nails dig into flesh as the flame ignites again.
More love to give, never ending;
Hearts pounding
Like the Thunder, like the Rain.
Lightning explodes across the sky
Our bodies entwined, racing toward
The inevitable, all consuming end.
Wave after wave pass through leaving only us.
No one and nothing else matters
Except the Thunder and the Rain.
Once again resting, sleep threatening.
Still touching and caressing.
Breathing slowing, our hearts once again
Falling into the rhythm
In sync with each other,
With the Thunder, with the Rain.
