Soothe

In the moments before dusk   night in a struggle with the day   dreams they do say       dancing into reality   the red light district   flickers on high alert       she, backs into me   a soft velvet touch   embarking me involuntarily   to thrust     my chest closer   to those simple breaths   slow and so sweet   rendering me complete       here's where I dream   or so does it seem   a memory or want   to endow her my pride   an encompassing ride   stirring, echos in time       a morning of lust   urged to surface   thrive   brazen and bare   not coming up for air       spring undresses the moon     surrender takes many turns   lasting sips soothe
