Maybe

Maybe it was the moonlight
The way it flashed golden in your eyes
Deep and shining
Or maybe it was the way you whispered against my neck
Every word sinking into my skin
Seeking the marrow.

Maybe it was the tender caress of your lips
That sparked desire
From the first touch.
Or maybe it was the sunset
The way the light gently merged with shadow
Casting you in mystery

Maybe it was the way our shadows danced in the candlelight
Combining in ways that drove my passion
To a raging wildness, needy and insistent
Or could it be the shape of your shoulder
As it curved down
An open invitation to my lips

But baby, from the first touch,
The first kiss
I knew that this was more than passion
Walking and talking and demanding to be sated.
No
My heart was bound
Every bit as much as my mind was captivated
As I felt all pain disappear
And I knew
That tears were banished to yesterday
As you became my tomorrow
My forever.
